My initial impression of this image is the way the photographer portrays the nature in a unique way. He used a mosaic format in a collage for his work, and clearly shows this through the nature he captures and edits. This image in particular has predominantly cool and light colours in this image to create a calming and natural aspect. However, the warm vibes in this image create a contrasting vibe. The deep red against a light blue gives a sense of mystery. The red suggests a certain danger aspect, as if nature has a dark aura and the orange shows a deep energy and fascination about the image. In opposition, the blue symbolises stability, trust and innocence. |

This image in its entirety stands out greatly as it has manipulated a picture within a picture to be expressed in an uncommon format. The artist has used transparency and duplicated a single image- the image he has chosen is of a silhouette induced cityscape background under a brightness driven sky. It contains the colours yellow and blue, emphasising naturalness and an aura of peace to his image. Whilst the peace is trapped inside Nabuhiro's duplicated image, the outside is of a corridor, the colour white suggesting a pure yet clinical feel. |
I followed Nabuhiro's progression stages and ended up with similar results. For this, I had to take an image initially- it contains a complimentary silhouette form at the bottom which leads upwards to a pleasant, natural sky. I also highlighted the artist's key concept in having a white, clean backdrop for the naturistic images to be presented upon. The image could be improved by creating a sharper and more enlarged effect.
