dc.description.abstractIn general people use the word grotesque as an adjective or noun to describe something disgusting, twisted and warped in appearance or perspective. All of these definitions are correct, but stop short of the full meaning of the word. "The grotesque is ... something playfully gay and carelessly fantastic, but also something ominous and sinister in the face of a world totally different from the familiar one - a world in which the realm of inanimate things is no longer separated from those of plants, animals and human beings, and where the laws of statistics, symmetry and proportion are no longer valid. "1 It covers all realms of dream worlds, daydreams, fantasies and nightmares. I am trying to convey the grotesque in my own way through photography. I hope to have a range of images that encompass the whole realm of the grotesque.en_US
