Wholeness Photography
Breaking through the “Visual Attention” Barrier.
What you see is determined by what you attend to, at any given time. The environment presents far more perceptual information than can be effectively processed by the brain. Visual attention barrier forces our brain to select the information that is most relevant to ongoing behavior specially in locations that contain lots of objects and noises.
Complexity and information overload characterises almost every visual environment, given that fact , the perceptual system in our brain can’t build us a wholeness view of all the objects together.
As a photographer Amir tried for a long time to create a method that would give him the ability to create such “wholeness Photography” that integrates – physical objects, emotions and beauty.
In 2017 after 40 years of experience, he succeeded to Invent a self-method that could break the Visual Attention barrier as a photographer, that enabled him to create a wholeness view in locations that reflected in his Artworks.
He found out that the first photography barrier is the camera viewfinder that narrows our ability to view all the objects in the location while we are shooting.
‘First insight – Shooting must be done from my brain and not from the camera viewfinder.
Second insight– before shooting, I stay in the location for a while, in order to give my brain time to study the physical objects – line,shape, forms and color pigments. Emotions filling the atmosphere –such as: people, religion, culture, and energy.
Third insight – find the best “Point of view” that is covering all objects together.
These three insights mentioned above, draws a scheme in my mind that creates the integration of the objects.
Execution phase – from the selected point of view, I’m shooting hundreds of photos in different angles while I’m not looking through the camera viewfinder but following my eyes to cover the whole brain scheme.
Final process – organize the photos together like a puzzle, creating “Wholeness Photography” of the location.’
“Amir’s puzzle consecrates history, yet at the same time, he creates a new and fresh contemporary reality. His artwork is distinguished by the geometric and sometimes abstract characters, which is born from a certain emotional situation or an imaginary event that the artist decides to embellish with various layers of impressive coloring. His artwork emphasizes the victory of the spirit, inspiration and beams of light he found within himself.”
