Verbal Description
A portrait image
A series of multi-dimensional lines connect abstractly throughout the image’s foreground. Thick geometric yet asymmetrical bars form a metal structure extending upward toward a single central apex. Haphazardly hanging from the structure, like thin curtains, are flimsy thinner pieces of metal. An occasional sparkle suggests these thinner pieces contain miniature lights.
The background entertains its own distinct patterns and shapes, revealing tall overlapping rectangular buildings. Entire sides of the buildings contain series of tall narrow windows on the right and short wider ones on the left. The upper left quadrant of the photo reveals a dull white sky.
The image is layered and varied. The lines seem to move in all directions creating distortions of depth and dimension. The eyes, overwhelmed by confusion and intrigue, try to navigate the compilation of lines and shapes before them.
With each twist
And turn
And swirl,
I see a new perspective.
Each angle,
And edge,
And opening
Offers an
Alternative view.
Looking up.
Looking out.
Looking in.
It’s all perspective.
It’s all layered
And may all lead
To light
If we look
Beyond any and all
Perspectives
