Intermediate Studio - Permanent Flux - Research - Conflict Image


1, originally uploaded by Jimbo (Alan James Wellock).

Here the image depicts a cloudy moment just before the sun breaks the horizon early in the morning. This sunrise quoting back to Turner represents the birth of life and in conjunction with the single tree shows a strive for peacefulness and the sublime. The clouds then contridict this message and dominate the landscape, depicting danger. The break in the clouds is used the same way it is within Turners work to show the viewer an escape from the inpending darkness. This image I feel is the best one that I have collected as it is the one that has the greatest emotional impact. Also because of the strong shapes in the image the impact of the gradual bluring effect will be emphasised which will strongly showcase the piece.
