Pretty Bird



 
MCN: CAS7W-4SEF2-9TBNX

Inspired by Imelda May's song "You're Smotherin' Me"

See video here:



and read the lyrics to the song here:

The song made me think of the interaction between "the prisoner and the prison guard" (so to speak). The obsessional tendency itself in the "prison guard" creates its own prison until it becomes unclear who holds whom prisoner. I tried to show this ambiguity of cause and effect in the image. Hence the ambiguous title. :-)

  2. I always love how you make what is a pretty image on the surface have such a deep undercurrent of meaning.
