-The Phallus In A Negative Light-
The Reverse of positive is obviously negative and a negative image is one in which light areas look dark and dark appears light. Colors also appear reversed, with red appearing cyan, greens appearing magenta and blues appearing yellow. Most interesting to me is the appearance of the face within a negative image, with darker areas such as nostrils and eyebrows standing out.
Negative images often appear to bring out a quality, an emotion, hidden when viewed positively. It is almost as if the negative aspect brings out a truth, a hidden layer which we cannot hide in the negative light.
