The disturbing sense of disequilibrium and equilibrium together is astonishing: the innatural body and the natural facial expression, the routine and the unusual, the dramatic body pose and the quiet standing. The dualistic value of this incedible pic is supported also by the contrast between the vibrant colors of her shirt, jeans and skin and the sense of cold purity of the room, so empty and aseptyc. The symmetrical but a-symmetrical composition and the great use of lights perfectly stay together, and I can just look at this pic, breathless, think about the vision of the artist, appreciate the performance of the model and call it Art.
Working with Mihaela is wonderful. She's a fairly shy girl, but when she's doing her contortion she's in her own world; focused, vibrant and enthralling. The more I work with such astounding people, the more I see that their abilities and inspiration to achieving a wonderful image always makes me strive even harder to capture them in a captivating way; not just a picture of them... but capturing a bit of them in the picture.
