Change in Scenery

“Change of scenery” represents of the idea that new opportunities and experiences can be found when we are willing to step out of our comfort zones and explore the unknown. The 1950s aesthetic of the photo, as well as the vintage clothing worn by the woman, symbolizes the feeling of being stuck in the past or in a familiar routine, but the pillars and archway leading to an open colorful door represents the possibility of change and growth. The colorful mosaic with a life like eye staring back at the woman is interpreted as a symbol of the new perspectives and understanding that can be gained when we open ourselves up to new experiences, and the eye could also symbolize the all-seeing, all-knowing, the one who sees everything, the one who has all the answers, the one who has the insight. The woman’s gaze, looking at the eye, could represent the viewers own curiosity, eagerness to explore and seek new knowledge, new perspectives, and new understanding. Overall, this photo encourages the viewer to take a step out of their comfort zone and explore new opportunities, as doing so can lead to personal growth and a deeper understanding of the world around us.
