Part 1:
Composition: A man is looking on the left third of the picture through a window that enlightens everything around him. Sheets spread all over the floor can be seen as he walks over them with his bare foot.
Concept: Masks. Comfort.
Method: As I was looking for places on my home, I found that the window had a soft tone that I really loved and I liked how the light came in and illuminated everything on the floor. So I decided to portray that and take the "intimate" approach, as the scene looked really comforting. Then I added the idea of a shirt and a window, to represent how we portray ourselves to society and how society really watches us.
Motivations: Experimentation.
Context: Personally I am always interested on how we are in front of others and how we really are. I think we are unaware of the inner workings of our feelings, mind and everything behind that supports us, just as our feet, yet we suit ourselves to others.
Part 2
Interpretation: Not everybody got the concept, and it was a cool picture, though nobody really noticed it. I think it's due the fact I had too many strong pictures next to each other and the size wasn't really that big.
Evaluation: I think I am missing some details on the textures. I think a better camera or a wider aperture would have come in handy.
Extension: I would definitively pursue this idea of "masking" between what we are and what we present to others to what we are.
