Geometric Oddities

 Title: "Triangular View, DeYoung Museum"

I was entranced by the architecture of the DeYoung museum in Golden Gate Park. I was drawn to make this image by the intersection of the edges of the building and the shadow, and the way the rectangular window is divided into light and dark. I find myself vacillating between thoughts of impending doom (as if trapped in a deep dungeon) and eternal hope when I look at this image.

I'd like to think that the doom contains hope within it ... it feels as if there's something significant about both appearing within the same image. And how wonderful that the brick wall seems to be materializing out of the darkness!
