Complex Grave

Posted by Jacob (Tokyo, Japan) on 27 March 2008 in Landscape & Rural.

Walking through hundreds of headstones becomes disorienting very quickly. Every glance is filled with another person's years, name, epitaph, or otherwise unintelligible writing. To express the disorientation I felt, I took this shot. The complexity and contrast of the grave's inscription is supposed to cause the eye to wonder to the white flower for relief. Perhaps this parallels the flower's original meaning?
