Expectations
Norman Aragones (San Jose, California)
Acrylic/Metallic Paper, 15” W x 10” H
Artwork:
This piece details how broken homes (familial conflicts) affect all aspects of our daily lives. It is reminiscent of still life art displaying a disturbed family dinner table connected to the borders of an old family photo (which is basically a film photography image).
Artist Statement:
The main paradigm in my photographic art revolves around the concept of depth (having some level of meaning within the photo and thus attempting to elicit a viewer's reaction through deliberate imagery). My hope is that the viewer comes away with some feeling, idea, and/or perspective from seeing my photo(s). The techniques I use in creating photographic images are not something specific. I just try to work diligently in creating something in particular (that I had envisioned previously in my mind's eye).
