>>2703210http://cargocollective.com/michaelmeyer/PhotosAhh you were the anon that created the thread about binding. It's Interesting to read what you write here and then look through a collection of your photos as a whole.
I see what you are saying about the difficulty of interpretation, and its an interesting concept. Just recently i have been reading the Tate Modern book on Daido Moriyama, i see a lot of similarities between his work and what you are trying to achieve, most notably your use of intense grain as well as your shots of the tunnels, canned fish and urban decay.
I have only been taking photos 7 months, but i feel drawn down the path of which you are speaking about, thinking of collective themes, motifs and framework that is the caterpillar stages of artistic photography.
The thing that I have noticed, is that as a beginner i have pushed away thoughts of all these things you talk about as i am out taking photos, and instead i have been almost moving unconciously, snapping the shit that appeals to me, it is only when i sit down and look through my photos after that i begin to notice a motif, mood or style that is transgressing my photos as a whole.
I guess the next scary stage for me is know i must keep shooting with this idea that i cant help but know a certain style is burgeoning. Whether this will conciously affect the photos i take or not, im unsure.
