Artist's Comments
© Andrei Osman 2008
*this is a little different from my usual calls. The little hand in there is Davind Andrew's, who besides wearing my name shares my b-day date.  . And he's one of the most handsome little boys i've ever seen.  The hand is his grandpa's, the photo was taken at the little guy's baptism.*the message of this photo is obvious...right? The golden bracelet is given by the grandparents at the baby's baptism [symbol of a good-life to come [weird customs i know]] , but what's got me hooked is our obsessive fear of death [ Thanatophobia]. We celebrate life so much, we tie ourselves down to it and make it so fragile. It's now wonder ancient civilisations celebrated life not death, it's much more certain. These "little" obsession of ours i wanted to capture here. *this deviation will also hopefully represent me in the Starlite Photo Challenge #2. Wish me good luck! *please leave considerate comments regarding my models ! *i allow  to advertise this. |
