{PRETITLE} Inspiration in Photography: Training your mind to make great art a habit {POSTTITLE}
What artist, photographer or otherwise, doesn't want inspiration for their week? The idea of training one's mind to make great art a habit should appeal to every serious photographer.
Brooke Shaden is a photographer in a special genre. She takes surrealist photographs, not with pliable clocks or locomotives emerging from chimneys, but with people, including herself, wrapped in yards of red material or vines and branches or floating upside down under water or up in the air. All of these images have a dark, ominous lighting that leads one to feel she is exploring the deep recesses of the mind where fear lies. These images are extremely interesting, and while I wouldn't want one of these hanging on my wall, I was certainly interested in examining the book as a portfolio of her work. I do admit that after a while, the images start to resemble each other, and occasionally some are too small to really make out what is going on. Yet it's clear that she is inspired.
The text contains various two and four page spreads with titles like commercial versus fine art, or creating new worlds, or using the human form as expression. The text beneath the title explores the subjects in slightly more depth, but a lot of the text might seem almost like jargon, especially to photographers skilled enough to be interested in creating art. Little of the material is of a technical nature.
Sprinkled throughout the book are case studies of other photographers, like that of Cari Ann Wayman, who pictures herself cuddling with a raccoon, or on the side of a hill below a house, like the subject of the Andrew Wyatt painting, "Christina's World", or standing against a wall in a badly deteriorated room, dressed like a schoolgirl.
