Week 6: Obsession

For this week’s blog, our theme is obsession. I truly struggled trying to find lighting that captured my opinion of the word. For me, obsession is something negative. It is something that people try to block out, but it slowly creeps into one’s life. So, this image captured that for me. The light symbolizes the person’s obsession. The darkness and the door symbolizes their attempt to block it out, which is not possible. The inability to completely block out the obsession is shown by the light that creeps through the bottom of the door. The light spreads providing visibility to the room, symbolizing the person's ability to see their problems that they constantly choose to ignore and try to deny. I know my mind tends to think in different ways, but I hope I explained it in a way that you can understand too.

  1. oooooh interesting concept! You gave context to your image, much like our projects in class. :) Nice! the image of light underneath a door, that linear light, somehow reminds me of being a child and being forced to go to bed, but the lights still on in the hallway. :)
