I had three photos of this, only this one had the bicyclist going through. But I liked that we all seemed to be looking at him, even the mannequins and the little santa. I met the cyclist later in the day, turns out he is a friend of my daughter’s so it was another connection.
The idea when I took the photos making up this collage was to get my client up against one of her favorite pieces of furniture, a large armoire / wardrobe closet. Later, when I cut up the proof sheet into pieces to do a mock up of the piece I realized how crucifix-like the pose was. This led me to this page and it’s challenge to think about beauty and pain/hurt together.
