Actually I mean both. (BTW I just ordered a copy of Crooked Beauty.) Figurative imagery as you describe is perhaps my first interest, but I am very keen to see how abstract imagery can be used expressively.
The project I'm working on is a personal exploration of identity and belonging. Some of that story, as it currently exists, involves metaphor; this I can show with literal as well as figurative imagery. But I would really like to see works incorporating abstract imagery - non-identifiable subjects - used as a central expressive tool (as opposed to its use as primarily as eye-candy, just stylistically, that is very popular nowadays. Its something that I have little experience creating, but I feel the piece I'm working on really calls for it. The titles listed weren't meant as examples of types I want to see more of, but as examples of types I've already seen; I would like to see something different to expand my horizons, as it were. Thanks Franco for the tip off to Artavazd Pelechian. I'm so happy to have finally heard of him! =L On Wed, Mar 7, 2012 at 5:51 PM, David Tetzlaff <djte...@gmail.com> wrote: > Given your examples, i think you might better describe the imagery as > poetic or figurative rather than abstract.
