| Certainly a beautiful image. The cracked and refrozen ice interacting with the pebbled shore evokes many emotions, such as impermanence, fragility, tenaciousness, imperfection. My feeling, though, is that it's the gorgeous colors, mainly purple, that grab the attention of the viewer, which is sort of an end run around the esthetic of wabi sabi. I understand that these are the colors that were there, but still find them to be a distraction. On the other hand, one could say that they're a facade, a curtain, that one must see through to arrive at the inner soul of the picture. Don't know, but I lean towards the former impression. |
