Description
This image is part of a series in which I experimented with creating layers of colors and bubbles by mixing Mazola corn oil and water tinted with food dye. The use of glasses and jars of a variety of shapes, inclusion of reflections and/or other objects also contributed to the abstract images photographed up close. In this image the bubbles act as tiny crystal lenses, distorting the text of the magazine under the glass dish.This was photographed in a waiting room at New York Presbyterian Hospital.
Per Wikipedia: Abstract photography, sometimes called non-objective, experimental, conceptual or concrete photography, is a means of depicting a visual image that does not have an immediate association with the object world and that has been created through the use of photographic equipment, processes or materials. An abstract photograph may isolate a fragment of a natural scene in order to remove its inherent context from the viewer, it may be purposely staged to create a seemingly unreal appearance from real objects, or it may involve the use of color, light, shadow, texture, shape and/or form to convey a feeling, sensation or impression. The image may be produced using traditional photographic equipment like a camera, darkroom or computer, or it may be created without using a camera by directly manipulating film, paper or other photographic media, including digital presentations.
Note: The watermark will not appear on the prints you purchase.
