Jessica Eaton



I find this photograph by Jessica Eaton interesting because the more I look at it, the harder it becomes to know what I am looking at. Initially I was attracted to the image for its bold color and pattern, and I stayed attracted to the image for its complexity. Different areas of the image are unique if isolated but the image as a whole seems to be uniform. The longer you look at the image the more you can pick up on the subtle differences in colors, or how much the dots are overlayed on eachother, which creates new colors and changes the focus of the dots. The areas in which the dots are almost on top of eachother look more clear, while the areas that look more soft are parts where the dots are overlayed in a way that blends them together and is harder to isolate a single dot. I also like the different levels of darkness in the image. Some areas are completely black and other you can see a hint of color and pattern. I am also very curious in how the artist created this image and the digital processing of the image. The image looks very complex and I am assuming the process of creating it was also complex.
