"Someone's Always Watching"
It well said by William Shakespeare that “Eyes Shout What Lips Fear to Say”. It shows the innermost feelings of the human, which sometimes is not portrayed by words. It helps to understand human psychology as they don’t lie easily. The word “Eye” comes from the word Eage (Old English)/ Oog(Dutch), which gradually changed its pronunciation and formed the present-day word – Eye. Other than being our primary sense organ it helps to judge things based upon what we perceive; even before touching it. It guides the brain to memorize what it captures benefitting humans in learning and distinguishing things. We can say it works as a built-in camera for a human body. Just like a normal camera, it has lenses(lens), aperture(iris & pupil), and photographic film(retina) to form an image in the brain.
It plays an important role in the human persona. One can easily make out the intentions of a person by looking at his/her eyes, as it determines the character or the behavior. A glance can easily mold a person while it can even create eeriness among them. It expresses the emotions of a person. But every time it needs not to be a human eye that can depict feelings. In this series of pictures other than dealing with only plain human eyes, I have tried to put stories of eyes that we often see around looking at us but we don’t care about. I felt they also have emotion to convey, which is overlooked. They often peep at us, smile at us, show anger, or even some with a blank face, yet they are never tired of watching over us. Let's see what they want to say.
Just because you are alone doesn’t mean no one is peeking on you. What I wanted to portray in the series, that even along with normal glances there are nonhuman ones that are missed, though they are intangible in nature, they have a great intensity to communicate. They can also play with an individual's mind. Our eyes sometimes perceive things in a way, which confuses our minds. Thus, sometimes it better not to believe in our eyes.
Good write-up.. congrats👍
