Chasing Stephen Shore

Another attempt (see previous photo) to articulate space. Straightforward definition of natural space without artistic inflection.

 

Through practice & practice I am attempting to implement Shore's principles of "spacial continuity"; do not impose structure of a scene from you, but rather allow the scene to organize itself into it's natural structure. On a flat picture plane have a “space” before the room division and a “space” behind it. Allowing the viewer to move around these distinct spaces. The viewer to be able to move their attention through the 'space' of the picture.....

 

Here, it appears geometry is trying to take over as the dominant factor wherein I wanted the transparency of space to lead the narrative.

 

... and I am actually taking this shot through a window from yet another defined space, thus adding another dimension to this project.
