Joan Fontcuberta's work gives me a sense of fantasy and adventure that catches my eye. For this image it looks like the person in the image is performing some kind of magic upon the tree or spray painting it. I enjoy his black and white pictures that show silhouettes of the objects which is pretty cool.
ReplyDeleteI agree. There is depth, a sense of mysticism here that works for me.
DeleteI think that's cool, I am kinda wondering that how did he edit this image.
