“The story is told of Michelange-

lo being asked about his meth-
ods for sculpting.

He replied simply that he

worked on a block of marble,

removing all that was not

part of the sculpture until only
the sculpture remained. I sus-

pect this oversimplifies

the art of sculpture, but it’s an

excellent analogy for photogra-

phy, which is

essentially an art of exclusion.”

- David duChemin

Winner Print– Open (Intermediate) Energy by Liesl Walden (23).
The title helps to explain the intentions of the photographer - in
this case it is the shapes and strong colours which create ten-
sion.
