This photograph portrays a child in the early stages of constructing how she sees and is seen. By holding delicate flowers over her eyes, she creates a symbolic barrier between her inner world and the one around her. The gesture suggests both protection and projection: an instinct to filter reality through imagination, beauty or uncertainty.
I'm an amateur photographer emphasizing on portraiture. I'm thrilled by fine art portraits style as the style that has deep meanings, that makes you stop and think. "Talking" portraits evoked in me a desire to try to create portraits with meanings that force to think and to expand thoughts out of what is just seen.
