Photo Of The Week #11

Remember those hidden picture posters from the ’80s that if you stared at long enough were supposed to miraculously turn into a picture of frolicking dolphins or unicorns something? Those never worked for me. Maybe it was just that I didn’t want to see a picture of unicorns. Or that I thought recreational drugs were supposed to do that trick for you. I do know that some of Picasso’s work began making sense to me thanks to those drugs. I’m just kinda glad he chose women as his subjects rather than naked men. On the other hand, if the hidden subject in those mystery posters had been frolicking penises, I’d probably have done much better sussing them out.

Having said that, I hope there isn’t a penis in this photo. There is a lot of male flesh. I’m just not sure which appendages are represented. And every time I think I’ve got it, the numbers don’t add up. I’m not sure if the ink helps matters or adds to the confusion. Regardless, I keep coming back to this shot trying to make some sense of it. Maybe I shoulda stuck with the Picassos. Whatdaya think?
