Blog Post Numero Dos



Nels Cline
by photographer: Zoran Orlic

Subject: Nels Cline of Wilco playing guitar.

Form:
i. Color
ii. Positive/Negative Space
iii. Light and Value
iv. Motion (or lack there of)
v. Relation to elements within the frame.

This photograph shows the relationship between a musician and his instrument.

Zoran Orlic uses the forms I have defined to show the unity between a musician and his instrument. Color helps create an obvious subject matter of the musician. I believe the negative space and light and value represents the nothingness occurring in the mind of the musician. Motion, though it is not occurring, viewers know that to play a guitar your hands have to move, the photograph stops that motion.
