Artists See the Strangest Things
One of the things seen at the Tougaloo Artists’ Colony.
At least I do. I was questioned as to why I was backed up to the water fountain in the hallway with my camera. I said, “Look down the hall.” “Duh? Oh, well. I thought what I saw was beautiful in a strangely surreal, industrial, functional sort of way.
The hallway was really two different hallways. One with the lights and backlighting gave one image.

The image taken with no ceiling lights on is completely different. I brought the levels up in Photoshop to let you see the detail.

I suspect the lighting at the far end of the hall is a single ceiling fixture. We were working in a huge room in a daylight basement that is the print workroom during the school year.

The final product photo on the bottom is amazing. The chair, the lighting and the industrial elements all contribute to a surreal effect that just beckons someone into the ‘light’. Wonderful!
