I won't say that I've discovered a new kind of metaphysical photography, but the method is quite interesting. There are situational cards (not tarot cards) where you pull out a card and it shows a scene, a sign, a symbol....by which you can determine for yourself what awaits you tomorrow. They work for me.
I decided to try it with space through photography.
Before the walk, I let go of all household chores, tasks and plans as much as possible...I tried to get everything out of my head so that there would be fewer distracting thoughts and went for a walk around the city at night.
I made a deal with myself (or the universe) So, whatever steals my attention, that's what I take pictures of.
And then I will somehow try to read the message, sign or prediction.
To be honest, I still haven't figured out what I've done.
Maybe it wasn't considered yet, maybe the mood wasn't right, maybe I didn't understand the signs in the resulting pictures.
But the very fact that something peculiar has turned out already makes us think about the working scheme of this principle.
I probably haven't been so specifically immersed in the "game" with space yet.
I had nocturnal metamorphoses in the past years, but I didn't send a request for signs of fate, but simply photographed something that manifested from the depths of my inner world.
I've got some diptychs in places.
But I only connected them now, maybe that was the purpose.
I would to try again...
Another thing that caught my attention was that almost all the shots turned out to be in the deadpan style.
There's still something metaphysical about this deadpan, and it's not for nothing that gallery owners love it.
And in this state, I would say, zero, deadpan turns out by itself.
And so it happens that when the mind, brain, and all sorts of genre bindings are turned off, you want to photograph what you see simply and directly, without bias.
Is deadpan metaphysical?
But what about street and other genres?
Yeah! So there was a logical chain, what kind of genre is the most metaphysical!
