About the Item
Man in the Mist. Lost in thought and cloaked in a veil of mist and smoke, a young black man stands atop a fountain's pilar and ponders the world. The adjacent light post's shape echoes the man's shape and expresses a graphic tension between the two. Smokes leaks from his mouth, adding to the thickness of the surrounding atmosphere. Repudiating conventional composition practice, the man points left to the outside of the picture instead of pointing into the picture. At the extreme bottom of the picture, a group of older tourists move right and counterbalance the standing man, forming a formal composition.
Mitchell Funk brings the compositional exactitude of a studio photographer to street photography. He is an abstractionist while being a documentarian.
The work is signed, dated, and numbered 2/15 lower right recto, with other sizes available, and it's unframed and printed later. Printed on Hahnemühle Fine Art paper
