'The Imperfect Scope of Imperfection'
The circle is a symbol of perfection, wholeness and oneness, all of which can go together toward the same meaning. But, it also symbolizes zero in mathematics, as - nothingness. A very interesting thing, really. Why would a symbol of wholeness also symbolize nothingness? Weren't we creative enough in the roots of history or is there a deeper reason for this? Is there some breathtaking story behind it? This photograph is a celebration of that untold story.
I don't believe in perfection. Not in our realm at least. I believe many of my photographs speak in favour of that fact. Perfection is fake and untrue. Running after it is like chasing a rainbow. Therefore, I spend time in removing the perfection from my photos, rather than looking to achieve it. I think that by achieving imperfection, works of art become perfect. A conundrum, yes! :D I think that perfection can be reached only in thoughts, in ideals, in beliefs. Nothing is perfect, neither is meant to be perfect in the material world. Therefore, it doesn't matter which camera you use. Any is just as good. The art, nor the beauty, are in the camera. They are in the eye of the beholder. Much like love.
The colours of the circle are strong, saturated, and set in a weird but still quite balanced combination of magenta, red, blue and some little green/yellow. I chose this colour scheme because I wanted to emphasize the conundrum. And of course, the imperfection. The imperfections, leading the eye and defining the space, are important in creating the feeling, as much as colours. The blue creek behind it symbolizes the motion of time in life. It is like a life seen through the imperfect scope of perfection. The green beautifully tries to match the magenta but fails. But, the blue comes to help out immensely and the balance is almost achieved. Tonality also helps a lot. Imperfect balance but still a balance.
Then again the duality of the symbol might mean: "If you got nothing, you got nothing to lose - therefore you are free to be whole just as you are." :D
Enjoy! :)
