Sit Ups

This is the first of two images inspired my Oscar Burriel. I set it in the neutral setting of my living room, a place where model's are usually found and a factor that would hopefully add an air of freakishness to the image that I couldn't achieve if I placed it elsewhere. The light coming through the curtains also provides a useful light source providing some ambient lighting in the image, with there being some lines that neatly cross through the image and both figures creating a surreal feel to them both. I had the ghost figure sit up because I wanted to create a sense of bewilderment. He's out of the body and wondering what to do next. I also incorporated some movement of him moving forward but I don't think this quite works as I isn't evident in the light coming from the left so it's difficult to make out. I also think merged the two figures too neatly so it doesn't create the sense of visceral surrealism I was hoping for.
