The Girl Who Got Away, Robin F. Williams

Personal Reflection

Robin F. Williams is a master of light and color. Their way of giving definition through shadow makes their work haunting, as if you're seeing an image and its negative at the same time. The Girl Who Got Away looks like the final scene in a slasher film, but the far-off look in her eyes reminds me of the numerous other things women endure that leave them scarred and haunted. I think it's interesting how the girl is painted in shades of red- it's as if the blood has become a part of her.
