The world from your back door seems so wide, the house so tiny it is from inside. The box that you're still living in I cannot see for why, you think you've found perception doors but they open to a lie.....Hawkwind 'Mask of Morning'

"Our hearts are wild creatures, that's why our ribs are cages."

Oh goodness, I wish you could see this one in person, the depth didn't translate back into photo very well! Whitney is a dancer and the grace I hoped to capture seemed effortless for her!
Growing up, the sighting of a butterfly was magical. They were so delicate, free, and always sought out beauty (in the form of flowers). It seemed perfect to have a butterfly represent a heart then. The roses and wings are emerging from a rib cage that has been cut out of the canvas.

This is My Brother, although this image is a self portrait
this is how I saw him...
No confusion between man and machine.....
frozen in time as a strong reflection of my perception of others.
strong character,
strong heart.
Enjoy!

Part of a series of shots on time and its perception
Man waiting for the train at the station reading the newspaper.
His solitary waiting suggests a slow perception of time, a moment of 'isolation' in which everything flows more slowly.
Indeed, time expands almost to a stop in the longer expectations.
In contrast with this, the moving train: symbol of becoming, a perception of motion and 'sliding'.
Framed within it, other commuters waiting or moving frantically between the tracks, recalling also images of 'waiting/slow - motion/fast' passage of time.
Their synthesis invokes the theory of relativity (Einstein)
I tried to show the different degrees of perception of time, moving from the idea of time as an abstract concept, dependent on our subjective perception and emotion.

Name: Perception
Real Name: Unknown
Status: Villain
Powers and Abilities: Sometimes people see exactly what they want to see, or what they expect to see. Perception’s powers make use of this, making everybody within a 50 yard radius see him exactly how their brain expects. He is also an expert at voice manipulation, quick wardrobe change, and acting.
Main Weakness: Because of his power, people may see him as someone they’re angry at or a really close friend, both of which get uncomfortable. Also, his power only works at a quick glance, so when people look at his face for a long time they notice that something’s off.
Bio: Perception grew up in an orphanage, and never knew his parents, nor his real name, and because of his powers, the everyone there mistook him for someone else. Eventually, feeling lonely and invisible, he ran away. Throughout his teen years he grew a better understanding of his powers, and used them to his advantage. However, he suffered an identity crisis when entering adulthood, and decided upon a specific look for himself that he would focus on whenever he came upon his own reflection, so as not to lose his mind. After this, he tried having a normal life, one with friends and a job, but none of that worked out due to his “curse,” as he calls it. So in order to get money to support himself, he resorted to a life of crime, working mainly as a thief. He now lives comfortably, yet alone, and continues to thieve, both for the resources, and for the excitement it brings to his otherwise lonely life.
Day 350. 12/06/2011
We,humans like to have perceptions about things- people, countries, cultures, etc.
We perceive things from what we hear from others, who has probably heard it from somebody else.
The perception about Islamic women is one such example. Westerners think those females are caged and nothing more. Fortunately, thats not the truth.
Just because she covers herself, doesn't mean she's oppressed. Islam has given men and women equal rights.
Please dont generalise, and please dont have false perceptions about things you dont know about.

Day 350! Expected some flowers on my stream? Or something happy go lucky? Sorry to disappoint you guys then:p.
Found these dead leaves lined up and the sun shining on them. It looked really beautiful even though they were dead.
My attempt to photograph what I see, not what I know is there... opens the door to creative thinking and curiosity for the viewer.
Golden Monoliths
par/by SpY
Rue Faidherbe (Rambla), Lille
Imagined for lille3000’s 7th edition, the Golden Monoliths by Spanish artist SpY guide the visitors and participants of the parade to the heart of the city and its Fiesta. The gold titans seem like a modern take on the 17th century city gates, that welcomed the opening of carnivals and processions. They transform the urban landscape of Lille through the installation of fourteen golden shipping containers in a vertical position, aligned along its main street.
This monumental intervention reconfigures the everyday perception of the public environment, turning industrial objects into symbols that alter our understanding of space.
The street ceases to be a simple space of transit and becomes a ritual corridor, a passageway between
Originally conceived as utilitarian structures for global transportation and trade, the containers are decontextualized and coated in gold. Far from being a decorative gesture, this treatment converts their industrial purpose into an artistic resignification that oscillates between the functional and the symbolic.
SpY subverts the original identity of the containers through an installation that transforms the utilitarian into the mythological, in an exercise in spatial perception that invites reflection on the cult of consumption in modern society.

À l’image des portes de ville du 17ème siècle qui accueillaient l’ouverture des carnavals et des processions, les Golden Monoliths de l’artiste espagnol SpY guident le public et les participants à la parade au cœur de la ville et de sa Fiesta. Ils transforment le paysage urbain de Lille avec quatorze conteneurs dorés érigés à la verticale le long de la rue Faidherbe.
Cette intervention monumentale reconfigure notre vision quotidienne de la ville, transforme des objets industriels en symboles qui modifient notre perception de l’espace.
À l’origine conçues comme des structures utilitaires pour le transport et le commerce global, les conteneurs sont décontextualisés et peints en or. Loin d’être un geste décoratif, cette métamorphose vient bouleverser leur essence industrielle et leur confère un sens artistique entre fonction et symbole, utilité et mythologie.

30 Days of Perception - Day 10 - Slow down
When I slow down, I take the time to notice all the details within and around me. I see the textures, the patterns, the shadows and sunlight. I see peace.
