Domination or two faces of the same coin.

Comments please.

This image is arresting enough to study, and kind of interesting, but I am totally confused by the combination of elements. It may have been part of a play or performance. As a single study it just doesn't seem to register on any part of my brain. Who is dominating whom? And how does Der Feuhrer relate to the dominatrix on the ground.Hitler is an asexual figure to me. Whereas dominatrix and boobs are some kind of form of sexual passion I suppose. And what are the confetti or string lights all about? Sorry, I don't get it. The elements seem unconnected,even the model does not look at Hitler photo.. Too modern surrealism for me I guess. a possible overdoing of graphics with the Hitler floating bit too..A quick reaction I hope is useful to you Michael. Oh yeah, nice hairdo on the sexy fraulein:-)

Dear Gerry, you are right that this is a surrealistic synthesis. By my opinion the people that like to dominate are of the same kind. The inner ego of those people obeys to the same rules of psychology. They always try to find ways to seduce people to follow them. Unfortunately there are always people that like to be seduced and dominated. That's all, by my opinion...

Kaushik, Pierre thaks for your comments.

Happy New Year and Merry Christmass to you and your family my dear friend.

Great job Michael! I like these projects where you have to think...

Not many people are approaching sensitive subjects like "The Power Phenomenon" or "the hypnotic power of domination?, a clever visual interpretation on your side. Best wishes for 2008!
