Ambiguity is one of the most vital criteria that I use in determining the success of a photograph—opening a door and leaving it intentionally ajar. If I have created the space necessary for you to appreciate my work through your experience, then I have unlocked a window to your soul. I have offered you endless ways of perceiving and interpreting my work. Forcing a work of art, on the other hand, demands that a viewer sees things only one way. The artist’s way! Their viewer’s experience is anxiously manipulated and their possibilities, therefore, harshly limited. As a result, you, the viewer, will receive little from the experience and will most likely feel put off. Cheated.
