Falling
A quote to think on:
What strikes me is the fact that in our society, art has become something which is only related to objects, and not to individuals, or to life.
-Michel Foucault

This reminds me of the feeling you get when you have a dream about falling and you wake up jumping to try and save yourself from the fall.
I'm very curious as to how you created this image. Tell me more please!
I think there are times in our lives where everyone feels like there falling. The only question is where and how we are going to hit the ground.
This is great. I love the use of value which makes this print really interesting to look at.
The figure is truly falling. The image very much calls out to our humanity, fragility and beauty.
Is this a print? Looks more like a picture to me. Hard to tell. It would make more sense if it were a print. I also am very curious how you made this image. Guy on a trampoline?
Great Foucault quote. Are you familiar with the late artist Felix Gonzales-Torres.
I like how this image feels like a remembered experience. It is haunting and exhilarating.
I'm in love. This image is so strong and I feel like everyone can relate. When I was just browsing over everyone's images in this exhibit this stood out to me right away. I'm curious as to how you made it as well.
love it dude. wicked cool. Some Oaklandish: hella awesome; on deck man!
Is this you?
it's a photocollage...made in photoshop with pictures I took and a picture from http://www.flickr.com/photos/library_of_congress/
So it is not me falling...literally but yeah I am falling all the time.
I haven't heard of Felix Gonzales-Torres?
Foucault is fantastic although I am not sure what he is trying to say with the quote. haha

Great image Adam! The composition of light and dark is beautiful
I think he is saying that we put art on a pedestal. When its really bigger than that.
The art of living dude.
Mad skillz.
i guess in a sense everything we produce is a self-portrait. righteous image, dude!
very nice image. i love the feeling it gives me- makes me a little scared and a little excited all at the same time
