I had a lightbulb moment when i read DeeRoo G 's comment about using low volume solids in the Angled Frames discussion thread. I knew immediately what I wanted to try for: solids. My stack of aqua/teal/blues were perfect. When I went back to read the tutorial again I laughed as I realized those were the colors she used as well!

No subject. just frame

such a beauty is a shame...

My sport frames have curves, rubber padding, and plastics, to make them so comfortable and durable that I can sleep in them. It seems like throughout history, the most comfortable glasses can always be found in the sports and safety industry.

Scavenger Challenge – October 2018 Assignment – Triangles

Our subject this month is "triangles." This could be a single naturally-occurring object like a piece of broken shell, or it could be something man-made like a traffic cone. It could also be something more subtle, like a beach scene in which three people form a "visual triangle" because they are standing at the points. In this case, the "triangle" should be immediately obvious to anyone looking at the photo. In other words, the three people occur as the elements of photographic (artistic) composition. The remainder of the photo should be relatively uncluttered. You want the viewer's eye to be caught by the three points.

 

Two frames, which I made a few months ago. With a custom underslung GL, some shells, and an underslung assault rifle just becuase.

It's a bit cluttered.

Porche West’s artful expresssions exists at the nexus of photography and sculpture, the point where photography and sculpture converge. Dramatic and thought-provoking photographs are “housed” within salvaged architectural elements adorned with thought-provoking, symbolic objects. The net effect is additive - the sum is greater than the parts - photographs encorported within sculpture deepen the meaning and message of the art.

 

It is Porche West’s contention that flat photographs fail to achieve the richness and dimensionality of photographic sculpture. Though a framed photograph can tell a good story, a photograph “housed” in sculpture gives a more nuances and deep narrative. Salvaged architectural debris door casings, flooring, window frames, knobs and pulls give the photograph a sense of place, an authenticity that comes from being at home in the soul of the artist’s works.

 

Porche West’s assemblage is cultural “curatorialism” masked as art. The simple behaviors and beliefs of ordinary people are universal and easily understood. Religious faith, death and burial rituals, celebration and suffering are comprehended, if not shared, by all humanity. To see one’s own emotions in the face of a Haitian child or the hands of an elderly woman in New Orleans, is to be reminded that that which binds us together is greater than that which divides us. We are in essence, one.

Photographer Christopher Porche West was born in California but has family ties in Louisiana. He has been working with the scenes and people of New Orleans for more than 30 years. His interests began in the late 1970s when he came to New Orleans from the University of California Santa Cruz to research free people of color. He continued to be interested in the city's culture and decided to pursue topics in contemporary New Orleans, including Creoles, Mardi Gras Indians, jazz funerals, neighborhood events, and passing rites. Though he kept up his commercial studio in Newport Beach, California, he self-published 'Eloquent Visages,' a series of Mardi Gras Indian portraits. In 1995, West permanently moved in New Orleans. He set up a temporary studio for the Indians that allowed them to be in control of the means of their documentation; this was a first. In the late 1990s, he continued to explore his curiosity in the people of New Orleans, but he also began experimenting with scrap material that he found around the city. His new medium was part photography, part sculpture. His relationship with the American Haitian Development Association allowed him to make three trips to Haiti in the time span of two years, from 1998-2000. These trips were the first of a series of visits to the Caribbean. In 2003, Carnival Interests led him to visit Cuba. in 2004 and 2012. Though he has been featured in over 40 exhibitions, his most notable accomplishment was being chosen to singularly commemorate the Louisiana bicentennial in Paris. For this event, his work was featured at Festival L'espirit Jazz a Saint Germain des Pres. His work can be found at the New Orleans Museum of Art, Harvard University, Amistad Research Center, and the University of California-San Diego.
