Tattoos and Shadows

[1] The staged photograph was inspired by the painting Luncheon on the Grass (1863), by Édouard Manet.

In Wall photograph, the set is changed to a suburban garden, where a large tree stands, with her foliage filtering the light.

A man seated at the right in the grass is casually dressed in a shirt and shorts, displaying his arm tattoos, while he reads attentively a book.

To her left, a redhead woman is seated on the ground, with her legs crossed, wearing a greenish dress, while also showing her right arm tattoo.

The picture does haver a sense of intimacy and at the same time of loneliness, since the relationship between the figures remains unexplained and they seem oblivious to each others presence.
