Egor, seeing the title was an immediate draw for me. The old movie with Peter Lorre about “The Hand” came to mind…
I really like this for the bit of uniqueness overall and story telling. The lost, looks like a welders glove to me as I have a pair, and then where did it come from and who is missing it. Again the story side of the scene. …
First thought was pollution. Discarded human made stuff polluting the water ways. And why is it in the water? The B&W treatment gives it more documentary feel about it. Interesting.
Makes me think of a surreal painting with the glove floating and that abstract black shape in the upper right. And the gray tones really work. Though, I could also see this as a spot color of the glove – depending on the color. Yellow or green might be really striking. Thought provoking image. Thanks for sharing!
The glove was orange. I converted to b&w due to that color. Thank you for commenting on the black shape at top right. You’re the first. I put in some effort to get that because it was an important element to what I thought this was about.
