Artist's Comments


Is it possible you are the one?
Did you decide the color of your pill?
Is the world making any sense to you?
Would you follow the rabbit is you see it?
Do you see green letters dropping all around you?
Do you find yourself dreaming of Carrie-Anne Moss?
Have you ever eaten soup then realized that there is no spoon?

I'm sorry, but if the answer is YES to any of these questions... You are infected with the Matrix effect. Seek help in your local Blockbuster.

Critiques


:iconf-body:
Maybe I'm missing something but I don't see the connection to Matrix here (other than the title and description). That's why the title and content doesn't match in my opinion.

And to be honest it looks more like an over done snapshot than well planned photo to me. If it was some amateur photographers work I wouldn't pay much attention to it, but as I know your talent I must try to find some meaning in this. The problem is that I can't. What were you trying to communicate? Is this an art by accident or don't I just get it?

Wow!
When I saw this image in my message centre, it really struck me. The colours and contrast!

I really like the concept behind this photo (just like all your other photos) where you conceptualize an ordinary photo and make it mean so much more.

The contrasting colours in the background (orange/blue) creates the surreal effect in this photo. It really makes the silhouette stand out. The balance of the subject and background is almost perfect.

The frames on the walls really add to the geometry of this piece, enhancing the perspective portrayed by the 'converging' walls.

Did you try any other poses?
I think the pose of the model in this picture looks a little unnatural, but besides that, I think this image is perfectly executed.

Keep up the amazing work Gilad!
Regards,
A.

At the first sight it reminded me of some facility for crazy people :) It took me a while (and reading the description) to get the point :-DD

I think the colors are too digital-looking/noisy/something. It seems this photo has seen extensive amount of post-process. I know you wanted to exaggerate the effect, but I think you overdid it a bit :) Otherwise, nice idea! And kudos for CC licensing it ;)

The colours in the back-lighting are brilliant ~ it's like someone running through an oil-slick in a dream.

Really great shot!
