I've always been intrigued with the connection between people and sculptures of the human form. It began when as a child I saw a picture in National Geographic that looked much like the one above, found here. It was taken at the Vigelands Park in Oslo, which I made sure to visit when I got the chance later in life. I can't remember what photography product (camera or film) it was an advertisement for, but the publishers ran the ad on the back of the National Geographic Magazine a number of times. I was enchanted with the interaction of the massive sculpture and flesh-and-blood little child.Since then I've looked many times for ways to get pictures of people--often me--interacting with sculptures. I thought you'd be entertained by some here.

At an outdoor market in Singapore.And there will be more to come.
Intriguing idea! My favorites are the first and second pic:)
ReplyDeleteI love sculptures too - but to look at and ponder, one of my favorite sculptors is (UK) Henri Moore.
I have never had a passion for them, but these are neat pictures.
ReplyDeleteThis is a fun post. It is great to see people use their creativity and get into the spirit of art.
