Writing poetry with your old pentax

Artsy entries. I have scanned, resized and uploaded several photos taken by a Mr Viggo Mortensen. And I have wafers. With chocolate. Dangerous indeed.



3 pm, 1998 is one of my favorites. But then again, I think all photos I posted here are.

Home, 1990 I feel indifferent posting this one. Yes, it appeared in Recent Forgeries, so it is a published picture, but it seems so intimate.

At the Forum, 1998

Home, 1998 Never fear art, wher ever you may find it. *hugs [livejournal.com profile] vegetariansushi* It's almost silly to use it in this context. But that's the way my working room would look if I'd lived on my own. When I work on my poems or pictures, I can't be bothered to put things away. There is too much inspiration in every piece. Thankfully, I work on a pc now. It seldom looks that cluttered nowadays. (Only if I look through my papers and notes... but I try not to do that too often... my poor hubby!)

Lost, #1-4, 2000 is a series of unreal photographs with a long story behind it that Viggo sometimes tells in an interview. I love the ghostliness of those photos. Eerie.

Cheek, 2000 I'm fascinated by the colours and detail.



*********

Fell, 2000 reminds me off a poem by D.H. Lawrence.

That's it. Hope you enjoyed.

Ooh, dude. Thank you so much for posting these, because I'd only seen Lost 1 - 4 before this. You're right about the intimacy of some of them - I feel positivey vouyeristic looking at Home 1990 and At the Forum. Also, Home 1998 is awesome, because that's very much how my work areas generally look, only that I'm not such a fan of Miller Genuine Draft. I like that there's a liquor bottle standing in the middle of the picture, just like "hi." And Cheek is awesome. Graffiti is so neat, sometimes.

God. I was going to say something more interesting, but I just managed to literally fall asleep at the keyboard, so I'm going to go lie down for a few, I should think.

Thank you so so much for posting those, though. *loves*
