8th Matsuyama International 2019 Award

Photo-Haiku Award, The Grand Prix Winner
The 8th Setouchi Matsuyama International Photo-Haiku Contest 





honeymoon
sunset quietly slips
into text







🔗 8th Setouchi Matsuyama International Photo-Haiku Contest 2019
***
Comment from the Judge: David McMurray

The grand prix winner shares the quintessence of photo-haiku. A talented artist -- with a flair for haiku, photography, video, and painting – she lives by the sea in Kuching, Sarawak on the island of Borneo. She perfectly described the abstract convergence of real life into art form, of image into words, and of photography into haiku. Seemingly without notice, the harmonious scene of a demure setting sun coupled with faint pastel clouds was transformed into the austere form of a written text message. Real life moved into the medium of a mobile phone text. The wedded lovers are presumably sitting with faces aglow in the ceramic-tiled gazebo by the sea.
