A Simple Photographic Gesture
The definition of a gesture is a movement of the hand, arm, body, head or face that expresses an idea, opinion, or emotion.
A photographic gesture is a quiet moment to express emotion, intent and thoughtfulness—where suggestion and completeness can happily exist beside one another.
The small shot is not just a ‘detail shot.’ It represents so much more. Material selection, colour and texture can invoke an emotional response. Context is communicated. The usage of space is talked about. The singularity of design can be expressed. You can clearly show the design solutions chosen to solve problems. The light quality and its interaction with design elements can be shown.
It’s a quiet shot.
