Carel Blazer made "Brood voor weeskinderen" with a camera. You can see, by his outstretched hands, how the artist might have entered into the scene, shifting and emerging through intuition. I sympathize with this artist, imagining what it must have been like to create it, maybe he wasn’t thinking too hard about art, but just trying to show us something. The gray tones shape our experience, giving it a somber feeling. Look at his hands, how they reach out and gesture towards us. Artists are in an ongoing conversation and exchange of ideas across time, inspiring one another’s creativity. This is a form of expression that embraces ambiguity, allowing for multiple interpretations.
