It is time for this week's photo for the group PCA: Photography Critique Assignment.
Assignment: PCA66 – Haptic-Expressionism
Deadline: May 24th, 2009
Image Tag: pca66
Mission: The mission for this week is to produce a photographic image that is more subjective, abstract expression, and unconcerned with realistic representation. This is as opposed to visual photographic images that are concerned with the accurate reproduction of the world as it is seen.
WIT (What it took) My turn to talk...
First, I still am not sure what haptic-expressionism is. But I hope this shot fits. I took it late last night.
Dolls played a strong role in my childhood, many in a negative way. (Warning: I find the video clips really scary..I didn't even rewatch them) Being 7th of 8 kids meant I was exposed to a lot of media. My eldest brother was 12 years older than me. He loved to watch "Night Gallery", so I would sneak in and watch it too. Unfortunately I watched this episode...and didn't sleep for months. Then later I watched this on TV and continued an unnatural fear of dolls. No I didn't watch the film Magic or Chucky because I was already freaked out. Then of course my mom loved to play Patti Page music and this song haunts me to this day....
Here's the lyrics to The Mama Doll song which inspired this photo.
"I once had a doll
That was all dressed in white
I called her my baby
And I'd hold her tight
Her eyes were so blue
And her cheeks were so red
But I loved her most of all
Each time she said...
Mama, mama, mama, mama
One little word she knew
Mama, mama, mama, mama
To me it meant, I love you"
I don't have photoshop but wit my simple program Irfanview, I was able to come up with this photo that I hope elicits both fear and affection.
Along the Oregon coast there are many opportunities to engage in abstraction, as here, especially using a longer shutter speed. The effect is reminiscent to me of abstract expressionism.
Wild thing
You make my heart sing
You make everything groovy
Wild thing!
