DAMON HUNTER, "Vertigo" in series "Color of Glass"
2014, RAW
What I like most about this particular photo is Damon Hunter's approach to symmetry. This composition is named "Vertigo;" a part of Hunter's series titled, "Color of Glass." When looking at this photo, I see two different perspectives in one shot, making me think of both differing opinions and viewpoints. The ability to agree upon one single thing would be a rare feat; I believe Hunter's "Vertigo" explicitly shows this. I connect to this in that I have sisters who constantly disagree with me, but we learn to get around our differences. In "Popular Photography," Hunter states that in his series, "The other element I look for, of course, is color" (24) in addition to his "perfectionist" habits with symmetry.
