Artist's Comments
This picture was taken about 12 years ago in Gainesville, Florida. I was covering a local gay and lesbian pride rally for a class assignment. The lady in the picture approached me about taking her picture. At the time, she was wearing her t-shirt. I said "Sure". She grabbed a few friends and ran to the restroom. When she came back, she had me walk with her over to where the the guy in the picture had set up a table promoting intollerance of the gay and lesbian community. She told me "I'm going to count to three, and then I want you to take the picture." I didn't have time to focus or really establish much of a shot. She ripped off her shirt to reveal the message written in lipstick across her mid-section.
I appoligize for the crudeness of the print - because it was so impromptu, I didn't have a chance to snap off any clear - distinct shots. Regardless, I'm happy with the image overall because of the juxtaposition of the subject matter. I just wish the woman had let me get better prepared for it. |
