Critical Analysis: Lazy Dog
Context
The title of this piece is "Lazy Dog" and it was created in 2007. In this piece I can see a woman walking her dog who is attached to balloons which are levitating him off of the floor. This shows that the dog is very lazy and that the owner doesn't care. This could indicate that maybe as a human race we are too stubborn towards animals health. Content: This piece was created by a Swedish photographer called Erik Johansson. I think that this piece maybe inspired by a lack of caring towards animals health and how they live this may have inspired him whilst making this. Process: Johansson here uses balloons to levitate the dog. This image has been digitally edited, he may have used photoshop to edit this, due to the date (2007). Evaluate: I like the idea of including an animal and a human in the same picture as not many use professional photographers use animals in their picture. I do however dislike the mundaneness of the image, and it is hard to make assumptions as to what the true meaning of this photograph really is. |
