Erik Tanner, Photographer, New York

Description

A black and white image shows a man standing on a wooden floor in front of a plain wall. He is dressed in a white shirt, black pants, and a bow tie. His arms are outstretched, as if he is performing or gesturing. Thin strings extend from his body to numerous stems with flowers that are on the floor around him. The flowers appear to be daisies, although the quality of the photograph obscures fine detail. The scene is dimly lit, and the background wall is devoid of decoration or features. The composition is simple, focusing on the man and the symbolic arrangement of flowers and string.
