Description
What is it with an empty bench? It draws our attention like a magnet. I was not going to sit down when I spotted this one, so that could not be the reason, I wasn't looking for a place to rest. Still, my eyes immediately focused on this object. Could it be that we want someone to be sitting there? Do we unconsciously wish to see an old couple looking at the ocean, with a walking stick leaning against the bench? A young couple in love? A widow resting and reminiscing good old days? A jogger with a cramp in his leg? The scene is not alive. What action we put into it is all in our head.
That means that this image is actually a blank canvas when it comes to its story. It is just a backdrop for the tales you have ready to be told.
Enjoy it on your wall, and let your guests tell their stories too!
