How Maddening No.2

Model: Ravi Morrison
Location: Ft. Worth Stockyards

This shoot was inspired, in part, by this quote found here ([link]). The title comes from Maya Angelou's "I Know Why The Caged Bird Sings."

Overall, the shots are about the beautiful, sudden, intrepid moments that go unfulfilled. As such, they are not real, nor are they expected to be. Some measure of a nostalgia not lived yet not fully imaginative. They simply are a diversion on tangented chance.

As such, some level of surrealism is to be expected as the photographic memory cannot be expected to craft everything on its own. The careered dancer would be found dancing in venues and theatres as the imagined would be far more surreal. The location, the pose, the colors, every last movement speaks of this surrealism, this rise and fall and above all, isolation.
