Why do you chose to give that name to your photo, instead of naming your work something that would be more representative of the photograph?<BR/><BR/>I've been to many art exhibitions, and have seen many photos displayed with that same name. I can understand titling a painting "Untitled"- especially if you are working within an abstract expressionist, color field, or other modernist aesthetic, where having a representative name would conflict with the non-representational nature of the work.<BR/><BR/>But photography is by its nature inherently representational. (Unless you are specifically trying to make it not so, such as by intentionally distorting the focus or experimenting with print development/photoshop, which you don't seem to be doing in your work.)<BR/><BR/>So what about the name "Untitled" appeals to you in titling your picture as such?<BR/><BR/>(BTW, I am a composer/songwriter, and have never created a work with the name "Untitled" or even a generic name like "Symphony". So I'm just curious about your thought process.)Andyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18310984787170712436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6329595.post-4370731485754365102007-07-15T21:13:00.000-05:002007-07-15T21:13:00.000-05:00Heather?
