Hannah Starkey

Hannah Starkey makes images with beautiful light and full colors. The photos remind me of William Eggleston (the colors, the mundane subjects), Jeff Wall (the silent, staged pictures), and Alex Prager (the colors, the women).

The pictures look misleadingly simple and light, but just give it a try: impossible.

Out of Africa

Finally, 35 years after the fact, I watched the beautiful movie Out of Africa with Meryl Streep and . Not sure I can explain what the movie is about. Which is not necessarily a bad thing.

I would say it is about nothingness as the meaning of life. Which not a bad motive either.

Lady marries the wrong brother, who has other interests than his wife, but succeeds in transferring syphilis to her. She falls in love with a man that does love her but dies too early in a plane crash. 

But she keeps going proudly.
