Lonely Lar Gibbon in Captivity

While visiting Lille Zoo I came to see this Lar Gibbon sitting all alone collecting leaves from the ground and just looking at it. I realized that it was the only one in the captivity not sure about the reason I clicked this photo, and it came out perfectly representing its loneliness. This lonely Lar Gibbon was a perfect representation of what captivity can do to one. Just a year later as COVID lockdowns were enforced we found this out by ourselves.

Maman by Louise Bourgeois

Maman by Louise Bourgeois is a masterpiece of art which was placed right in front of Guggenheim Museam, Bilbao until recently. Maman recently found a new home in Greece and is currently placed at Stavros Niarchos Foundation Cultural Center (SNFCC).

Maman is the French word for Mother. Bourgeois stated that the work was symbolic of her mother, a weaver and tapestry restorer. With twenty eggs in its abdomen, the sculpture embodies ideas of maternal protection. However, the artist’s relationship with motherhood was ambiguous, contradictory, and complex. Dominating its surroundings and teetering on rangy, segmented legs, Maman also evokes fear and suggests entrapment.

In this picture, Maman is surrounded by fog which was released every night improving the region’s ambience. I took a long exposure shot to give it a much more artistic effect and to help disappear any surrounding people that may make the picture less artsy.
