Deviousness |
I see this as a wonderful example of symbolic street: "The Urban Angel" over large and looming, looking down on a squalid urban scape; It's gaze points to a person living on the street for whom this project, I assume, has been initiated and from whom it is obviously disconnected; the shot reads very well "benevolent look down, leads to a hopeful look up, leading to the symbol for the state (Canadian flag)".
I also love the contrast between the smoothness of the banner and the structure of the wall of the building.
One drawback of this shot is that it is too small... I can imagine myself getting goose bumps looking at a large print of it hanging on a gallery wall, but this size here does not play to the strength of this wonderful image.
Excellent.
