Mayteana Colon Weekly artist post 3




Carlo Mollino

1)      His photos are captured with a polaroid camera. His focal point seems to be women in various states of their natural being. Some captured fully clothed and others in different stages of undress. Very close proximity and intimate. Use of cool and warm colors.

2)      The photos seem to show women as something to be cherished even worshipped maybe. The women are shown in good taste and the photos express their beauty. The first image depicts the women in a strong standing almost queen or goddess like. The second image expresses more of a softer intimate side of women. The last image expresses a sort of realistic, relatable image of women.


3)      I liked his work because even though the subjects are in various stages of undress they are done very artistically and in a way that is appealing and not uncomfortable. I like the meaning that I get from the photos, the expression of women as strong and beautiful individuals. Seems empowering and uplifting. The use of warm and cool colors convey emotion in the photos that capture my interest and makes me examine them more closely.
