Wingding Greeting card

6/11/2021

0 Comments

 
This image is modelled after a typical greeting card with a flower as the subject, but there are a few key differences. First of all, the border is a sliver of rubber glove imagery. Second the flower arrangement points to an empty space located at a strong position within the rule of thirds, where normally there would be some poetry or text of some kind. But the wingdings font has been used, so you can’t easily read it. This helps to make obvious the compositional device being used. That is the main point of the image, which could be summed up as: Made you look. Finally, the same words are arranged around the flower. I did this to make the viewer question whether or not the flower itself has been somehow “photoshopped” in there. As such, it might deny the reality that this image is pretty much a straight-forward photograph with text and a border. A Typical greeting card…?
