Appreciating Artworks from the Exhibit, "For a Higher Truth: A Photographic Tale of Falun Dafa's Principled Resistance" (Part 1)

(Clearwisdom.net) This photograph was taken prior to July 20, 1999 during a large group practice of Falun Gong exercises where the participating Falun Gong practitioners stood in formations to form the giant Chinese characters, "Falun Dafa" (or Falun Gong.) The grand, spectacular scene illustrated the rapid growth of the number of Falun Gong practitioners since Falun Gong was first introduced to the public in 1992.

One can see the triangular composition of this photograph by diagonally connecting the top left corner with the bottom right corner. This creates a very spacious visual effect. The diagonal horizon and the tilted blue sky remind the audience that the earth is a globe. It also implies that there will be Falun Gong practitioners all over the world. The color combination is very striking and expresses the grandeur and beauty of Falun Gong.

This is a very expressive photograph.
