b: So, the image was either allegoryor simply symbolicallysuggestive...

b: I titled it "Memory" and phrased it on critique request "Memory andrevelation" - though wish I could change that to "Memory revealed"

b: Where the blank pages represent things still to happenand be remembered.

b: But your head thrown back - not expressionless, butsome emotion of despair or passionate loss speaks to the loss ofmemories, of aging, of sadness.

d: which brings me to the whole paradox thing

d: especially with the eyes being blindfolded - as if i amalready preferring to disregard/forget/annul all of these new memoriesthat are in the process of forming

b: The blindfold represents both the impartiality of youin your role as some archetype of memory - uncontrolled absorbing andforgetting. Not evil in any way - but not beneficent.

b: Something older and more primal. White indicating a a primitive innocence.

b: But maybe you do care about your helplessness - andmaybe that is anguish underneath, and why your head is thrown backhelpless.

b: You would want to make it otherwise - memoriesrelevant, true and permanent. But your power is not even under your control.

I dont read that deep into this image. But I do like it. I do like the effort that went into the location, props etc... very good work.
