from the blurgeois pedagogues thread:
How can an image be musical? One way is blur, because music occurs in the blur of one note into another. Music, after all, requires time: time for the notes to play, time for them to change, time for the pulse of rhythm. Blur suggests time, since it suggests motion. Your subject matter and composition continue this theme of motion over time. We have the child, blurred, from moving, living and, one subliminally feels, from growing. Add to that the highlight to his right follows lines of perspective and motion is once again implied, motion from background to foreground, or vice versa. And over (under?) all this is the rhythm of the texture of the repeating curves of flora. |
