  1. I really enjoyed how the import of the phrase alters according to the image . . .

  2. thanks. that is what i'm interested in with this project...

    would you be willing to unpack that a bit? are there images where that shift was more pronounced? how were you interpreting the individual pieces, and when did those interpretations get shifted the most?

    details, please!

  3. So great to see Wenda's work included here!

    One suggestion - perhaps you could post one image a day, or every couple of days, so that we can digest them more fully. It would also give us more reason to keep coming back day after day (I hear web traffic is a good thing;)

  5. Well, with this image, it made me think of creation, be it by God or organically/ biologically. The'beginning of something beautiful'. Yet there was another image of a couple on a loveseat with their heads leaning toward each other, and it seemed to speak obviously of love in the way we might colloquially use that phrase. Others seemed to suggest more subtle relationships, but I'd have to comment on this on each of the images in turn.

  6. i like the sense of something forming here - something on the verge of taking shape in the primordial ooze or celestial ether..
