Gary:
Looks like Saudi Arabia
- Mystical
- Religious
- Covering
- Burkha
- Intriguing
- Not the real world
- Somewhere else
- Is the process more important than the image? Can the image stand without the process?
Donata:
- Likes the position and the fabric
Terry:
- Noticed the contrast mainly.
Donata:
- Preferred the first cinemagraph with the location
Terry:
- The blurring between moving and still is hypnotic
- On the close up you focus too much on the person, whereas in the first image there is more space for the viewer to question the meaning of the image and the identity of the person.
Gary:
- Hard and soft
- Spooky
Take the technique away, is it still an interesting image?
