The starter

The starter

The starter was the price of a

Meal

The meal was the size of a

Starter

 

We threw names around

And played with dispositions

One of the six left the picture

I, left with five, got lost in

Between the empty glasses

Locked by the uncertainty

Of this space

That expands

Into both infinites:

 

What we could’ve been

Moving away

From what we’re becoming…

    Lovely word play,
    lovely epressions,
    the tone of the whole collage brought in by the lights sets a very nice and relaxed mood.

    " got lost in....Between the empty glasses" , those particular two empty glasses?

    @matome: it's a figure of speech for drinking a bit too much and a reference to the angle from where I was making the photos.

    beautifully constructed body of work. i have the sense this took some time to construct i.e finding the right shots, with the right angles (and the right words) to make the piece. as moth said and there's no better word so i say again- meticulous.

    Thanks everyone.

    @Moth & Sam Buk: These photos were made last night at a friend's birthday dinner, I just kept on clicking while we were talking. The text started being written when I got home and this morning on the train. The montage was formed on my head as a concept also last night and executed this morning when I got to work while waiting for a render to finish.
