People Situations and Moments. Image Portfolio. Andrea Matone
I’ve called this section of my Image portfolio People situations and moments. In many ways that’s what it is, moments in time which are frozen forever as pictures and photos. Take the picture of the b-boy artist, spinning his best dance moves during and international contest while all other contestants and by-standers look on. I could get lost in the expressions of the crowd. Or the moment in which the boy is about to jump in the river water, the image is motionless in time. And the expression of the girl dancer: pure energy. The young woman alone in bed, as if left alone, abandoned. And again the photo of the architect intent in making last minute changes to his blueprints or the picture of the female golfer examining terrain and conditions before executing her golf shot. Then into a hospital bed where an inpatient’s hand with iv is being softly held with care by a family member. A million miles away a girl is practicing her acrobatics in a beautiful lagoon while underwater another searches. Both images are frozen in time. A business man is reading a newspaper inside a New York City yellow taxi next to curling baby feet. Lastly a woman practicing yoga and another diving below the water surface. Images are efficacious communication means if they are able to convey a message or transmit an idea.
