Ting Shen-Week8
Photo taken by Michael Wolf, belongs to his "Transparent City" series. This series is focused on urban city in Chicago. He chose to photograph the central downtown area, focusing specifically on issues of voyeurism and the contemporary urban landscape in flux. This photo is my favorite in the series. the repeated window patterns and the monochromatic shows gives a the image steady feel but has a certain dynamic in it. The symmetric position of the each opening windows on the corner of he frame, along with the different body parts showing, provides a contrast, a comparison, and a curiosity thought. The girl facing down looking out, the direction, makes the viewer think she is seeking her missing lower torso, that is appearing on the other window.
