'The creative mind is restless.'
Rishi Kapoor
Those on the east coast experienced their first real blast of snow this week. In addition the beautiful blanket of white, there were also hundreds of car accidents, states of emergency called, and several deaths related to the storm. Currently, it's heading north and heading through Atlantic Canada before eventually heading out to sea.
Like most animals, many of us felt a little restless the last few days. For some, it's simply the worry or excitement of the impending blast of winter. For others, the restlessness is organic. Animals have always been known to exhibit unusual behavior before a storm. For some animals, it may be in part due to their keen sense of of smell and hearing. For others, it may be their ability to sense the change in barometric pressure that comes along with having an intensely sensitive instincts.
Regardless of the reasons behind it, the restlessness manifests itself differently depending on the specific animal, and their specific desires and needs. Some react with fear, causing them to make noises and seek protection and shelter. Others, take on the leadership role, ensuring those around them are protected and kept safe.
For others, the restlessness is more carnal, signifying their desire to be close to another. Their goal, although their often not aware of it, is to match the intensity of the storm's energy, with a similar level of climatic combustion. There actions, movements and body positions are focused on attracting another with the same goals. This partnership is not meant to be permanent, but one where temptation is tethered to the tempest.
As you can see and feel from this series from Richard Rothstein, Sergey is visibly and enthusiastically restless. Sergey's body movements and poses clearly indicate a clear and intensely erotic signal to those around him. Both photographer and model are located in New York where the winter gust of Gail dumped more snow in the city than it did all of last winter.
