My two favorite pieces in Plet Bolipata-Borlongan's
imagiNATION installation at the
Ateneo de Manila University were also the most difficult to photograph.
The bench of the octopi installation is under a large tree with no lights, so I only took a photo of the female octopus. I know it's a "she" because of her curvy, queenly crown; the crown of the male octopus is pointy and kingly.
The giraffes are long, thin, delicate, and spread out on a wide expanse of lawn, so I decided to focus on the gracefully bending neck and delicate legs. Yes, they're wearing sneakers and crochet lace knee supports.

Quite original. Thank you for sharing.
ReplyDeleteThese are fascinating and I never knew the difference between male and female octopi.
ReplyDeleteGood for you. I wouldn't have even attempted it. Better to look at... kind of amazing.
ReplyDeleteThis would indeed be very challenging to photograph. Thank you for being up to the challenge.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful sculptures. The lighting and your selective focus make them look more beautiful.
