bull horn

In responding to Robert’s beautifully crafted portrait, “Sounds”, I had a number of ideas relating to silence. This megaphone idea rose to the top and stayed with me throughout my late night brainstorming. The next day began the biggest challenge, locating a megaphone in Portland in a couple of hours. As luck would have it, my local antique store had a couple of them… I bought them all. I shot the scene with both megaphone’s (painted this one), a phone with a disconnected cord and various change of wardrobe. This simpler expression of the idea finally won the day, albeit through an excruciating edit.
