Highlights and Shadows Fourteen<\/em> | \u00a92013 David Allio<\/p><\/div>\n

 <\/p>\n

This is the fourteenth in a series of fourteen still life photographs presenting Highlights and Shadows<\/em> on a hallway wall. Why, you may wonder, were fourteen images selected?<\/p>\n

For any presenting artist, the quantity of a presentation is a basic quandary. How is a determination made on what are too many or too few?<\/p>\n

In this case, the process began with a prosaic idea that 2014 deserved 14 images. Defense of that concept included image selection and rejection – yes there were many more similar on-topic images. Why fourteen photographs are better than 15 or 13 or even just one is an artistic determination. Symbolically[1], among other things fourteen represents fusion, organization, temperance, or delusion. Biblically, fourteen is considered a holy number. Take your pick on an interpretation.<\/p>\n

This is the fourteenth in a series of fourteen still life photographs presenting Highlights and Shadows<\/em> on a hallway wall. Thank you for looking. I hope the past two weeks have been enlightening, if not entertaining.<\/p>\n
