Onion 2
This file was sent from an other school assignment, her task was to take and object and glorify it or to modify in a photo. In this piece she decided to glorify the onions, taken from their original state and put into a photo setting. She did not do anything to manipulate them but move them leaving each onion unchanged.
In this photo I cannot help but feel that due to the background of white sheets it gives an ancient feeling. I can help but even think this is just a feature to a much bigger piece. Similar to the hidden features of Italian renaissance art. The sheets truly complete the task of glorifying the unions. Making them look, at least to me, as if filled with great deal more wonder. These do not look like the simple onions you barely see lying around in the pantry as you just walk by. The shadow from the sheets compliment the onions and add depth, contrasting from the simple white to bold golden and peach hues. As well as the fact that there is more than one onion, there really is meaning in the multitude. Each onion finding its own place among the folds is a work of art itself. The lighting in the photo is sublime, it helps the tint of the onions stand out and helps the onions "shine in the right places". I do not even want to say that this is a simplistic piece because it looks so magnificent. In this piece the task at hand is surely completed.
Why did she choose onions instead of some other veggie? Also what kind of onions are those?
