Homage à Magritte
#5 The Politics of Hunger ~ A series of images inspired by one of my favourite artists. This polaroid is not based on any particular Magritte painting (apart from "The Listening Room" & "The Tomb of the Wrestler" obviously) Just playing around with ideas...this one I feel is the weakest so far...making it too obviously a "construct" and removing some of the (hopefully perceived) metaphysicality I am trying to achieve...

Tip:
Make a tiny room out of cardboard. Stage various objects inside. Use a #121 close-up accessory lens with your SX-70. Take the picture. Thank Rene Magritte for being a genius.
