Uta Barth @ Orange County Museum of Art | Santa Ana

If it's not weird enough to photograph a photograph for digital display such as this blog often must, it's almost equally if not more weird to post pictures of the same photograph as both isolated image without depth as well as object in context, on a wall in this instance. Somehow the shadow of the mounted photo (illuminating depth) combined with color in photo and wall makes for a strange effect when and where either photo could be seen as a final "product."  A photo of light and (slight) object squared, or something like that. The words can not seem to locate the perception and feeling but light and slight come close, of course, also hoping that sharing of such a photo and construct is not a slight to the work.
