Solo Social
I’ll say it right now. I despise drinking games. The act of me participating in them. Can’t stand’em. Will not join in. The incessant nagging calls to participate are similarly taxing, but I can deal with those only because they’re invitations to something more tedious, fake, and wholly unenjoyable.
The word tableau was thrown around in the critiques this weekend, defined by google as “A group of models or motionless figures representing a scene from a story or from history.” As an opposite of portraiture, or of the focus on a single subject. One person here is certainly featured more prominently than the rest, but alas all of the players’ faces speak volumes.
Still trying to find some definite coloration that I can latch on to, but this’ll do for now.
That’s Solo as in the plastic cup brand.
