The Rhetoric of Images

The City That Never Sleeps. February. 2011

This image creates a visual juxtaposition, which I achieved through a reflection. This multi layered image creates an interesting perspective, allowing me to bring together two perspectives challenging the association.   On one hand we can detonate that the image is of an advertisement for shoes, with the presence of a women also in the composition, taken in New York. The place changes how we see the image, we instantly think of New York and how it makes us feel. For me in awe of its grandeur, it isn't clear if the women is also part of the advertisement and if not who is she and where is she heading. I am playing on the idea that advertisements are as real as we make them by blurring the boundaries of reality.
