DGorinstein 20 Posted January 11, 2012 Hello Pierre:My best wishes and regards for this 2012. Thank you sincerely for looking and commenting on my photos.This one is disturbing but, as all of your work, imaginative and very creative. The cyanotype lends an additional element to this complex image.Best regards.DG Link to comment
joseph_eiche 1 Posted January 11, 2012 I have been chewing on this image for more than a week. It is a powerful image that sends a variety of messages depending on the viewer. For me it communicates the inhumanity that we show our fellow "residents" of the planet earth. And ultimately by behaving this way we are dooming ourselves to the same fate that they currently endure.Not that you need to hear it from me Pierre but excellent work. Link to comment
Jack McRitchie 150 Posted January 12, 2012 Wow, this is great. He looks like a politician who was caught taking a bribe. A remarkable portrait. Link to comment
brano_k 0 Posted January 12, 2012 Pierre, remarkable skill that is not wasted on creating an irrelevant pixel games. This is truly a very sad image of what we all are becoming: monkey does what monkey sees. Now, if we all could have your PS skills and that much imagination, we could paste our favorite animal look-alikes onto their original templates... Link to comment

BelaMolnar 2 Posted January 19, 2012 I must be back to this image. It is an excellent representation of todays office workers. I experienced the transition of an open friendly almost family type of environment to a caged, depressed, small cage. Staring to a monitor blanked out mind, or playing games, and production slow down, and isolation from each others getting so bad, almost become, an environment, where everybody stranger, no collegial friendship, getting out after work, together, sometime for a drink or in the weekend to a disco, and starting monday happily, and productive. No work to take home. Not like today, where people work like slaves, in a cage, forced to take home, work, and never know, when they going to be replaced with a cheeper worker. And I can go on and on like this. This image all reflecting this depressing working situation to day. Don't be surprised if some of them losing mind and do a crazy acting, in a crazy environment. Retired long time,(forced by cancer) I keep hearing complaint of my ex colleges.One more time, hats off to yuo, Pierre.Bela Link to comment

Christal1664882414 0 Posted February 27, 2012 This takes on special significance to me because of a news story I saw on TV yesterday. A baby fell into a gorilla pit, and everyone was panicking for fear that the gorillas would harm the baby. One of the gorillas picked up the child and was very tender and nurturing of it, keeping it out of harm's way. The child was not injured, and the sensitivity by the ape was truly remarkable. I think apes and humans may be more alike than different. ? This is a thought-provoking and extremely well done image. Link to comment
poag 0 Posted April 11, 2012 Woow. The expression is so human that I´m not sure that a human can to be so human. Amazing concept. Link to comment
ajay_ramakrishnan 0 Posted July 15, 2012 What a creative piece of art, my friend! It truly conveys the concept of fate. For no fault of ours we are the prisoners of our circumstances. Some resign to it while others struggle and come out of it. The choice of blue color is quite clever! Wonderful idea, Pierre. 7/7. Link to comment
Tony Brandstetter 814 Posted April 20, 2015 Monkey is caged for our own amusement, officials say its to learn. So just like in product testing, we sacrifice a few animals so we can wear eye liner or go to a zoo.That's ok, these guys normally piss on me when I approch, f em.... Link to comment
Pierre Dumas 280 Posted April 20, 2015 But, this is a story of a human, Tony, not monkey! It is supposed to say, as in the caption explicitly reads that something is wrong with the freedom and liberty of our minds! Thank you for your visit and comment Cheers PDE Link to comment
