 It seems to me that time has stopped somewhere long ago, in other times, where horses were free everywhere, since man failed to understand their wild beauty. And man though being their master. My vision of them, their hypostases, they way I see them, the places I see them in, horses are free, embraced by a strange beauty and greatness, hard to see ... (Photos and text Stela Patrulescu)  All we know about her is that she can be (or inspire) multiple sights (vision objects). Stela is collecting those appearances which go beyond a simple female portrait. The space, the light and the colours of the frames go hand by hand with the many different aspects of the protagonist, keeping hermetically sealed her secret. If we would expect normally a series of photographs to enlighten us on a specific record of a reality, this present series does exactly the opposite … the more we look the less we know. (Photos by Stela Patrulescu)  In her quest for reaching the "inner and forbidden resources of art" Stela is presenting an extension of her portfolio. It can be easily taken as an essay on the society surrounding her, but does it really matter? Joggling from colour to B&W (or should we say Black on White) ... she is challenging the academic standards, only to state with her work that contradiction is the only way to resolve the visual urge a photographer is facing, with or without a camera! |
