Contrasting notions of what a bench should be, Philadelphia, PA• click to embiggenHmmmm...

Artist photographers also borrowed the idea that they could use nature as a metaphor for self. In photographing a "nature" that they are part of, they purport to reveal a world hitherto hidden that only creative insight can show. The end result, the image, then is left to speak for itself, telling us how the artist's "soul" and " psyche" has somehow processed nature. ~ Angela Kelly, from her essay, Self Image
