Divine Intervention: Central Park Ambulance Scene Bathed in Golden Glowing Light

1972

About the Item

Divine Intervention? Magical, almost angelic light envelops an ambulance event in Central Park. The body language of the surrounding crowd and the open ambulance door indicate a serious health issue is being addressed. Photographer Mitchell Funk's lens seems to capture the moment more deeply. The golden glow of the vast lawn in the foreground denotes “green pastures” or the word of God. Caravaggioesque rim lighting of the figures brings an angelic energy to the scene. The viewer can only think of an act of the Devine is involved in a human situation. Darkness is overwhelmed by light to shape a positive outcome.

The subjects for his striking and captivating visuals are typically set in the most ordinary environments, drawing the viewer into a charged but serene experience based on composition, palette and formal lines. Saturated in color, the nominal subjects gather a haunting and mesmerizing quality, creating a poignant pretext for the making of a formal color photograph. Decisively capturing the traces left by humanity, Pawassar's images are filled with a sense of universal nostalgia and pay homage to the passage of time and the extinguished moment, referencing documentary and street photographers like Henri Cartier-Bresson, Sebastian Salgado...
