EDITORS COMMENTS
Petri Damstén's self-portrait, "Backstab," captures the essence of introspection and melancholia in a hauntingly beautiful image. Shot in his home studio in Kuopio, Finland, Damstén uses a Nikon D850 and a Nikkor 24-70mm f2 lens to create an intricately layered and surreal scene. The photograph finds Damstén in a mask, his face obscured, as he stands before an array of knives, their blades gleaming in the dimly lit space. The title of the piece suggests betrayal and deceit, yet the artist's expression is one of quiet contemplation. The fragile egg, precariously balanced atop a cell, adds an element of vulnerability and fragility to the scene, heightening the sense of tension and unease. The image undergoes digital manipulation in Photoshop, with the lighting carefully crafted to create an otherworldly atmosphere. The dark, moody tones evoke a sense of isolation and loneliness, while the macabre setting hints at a deeper, more complex narrative. Damstén's use of props and symbolism invites the viewer to explore the depths of their own emotions, inviting introspection and reflection. The image is a testament to the power of fine art photography to provoke thought and inspire the imagination. This photograph is a stunning example of Damstén's unique artistic vision, showcasing his mastery of lighting, composition, and digital manipulation. It is a must-see for fans of surreal and thought-provoking imagery, and a reminder of the transformative power of photography to transport us to new worlds and challenge our perceptions.
