Nothing is important

August 14, 2007 by pmelcher.

Too much about nothing. Tired of microstock, of Getty’s quarterly report, of the nay sayers and doomsday scenario ? Tired of pictures of cows in a field or girls wearing a black suit smiling while wearing a headset? Well head on the the land of great photography as it is grown daily by the likes of visual geniuses like Ami Vitale. Not only a charming and gentle individual, she is one of those that speak little but show much. I fell on one of her multimedia today and couldn’t take my eyes off the depth of the images, extremely well supported by a gentle video feed that supports the still images.

Ami’s work make you feel like you are there, with her, in the present, and makes you want to pack your stuff and do something to change this cynical world. Not because you are angry and disgusted, but because you suddenly remembered you cared.
