This black-and-white photo shows a dog walking fast on a city sidewalk. The dog’s fur is blurry, its legs stretched out, and its head is turned slightly away. The pavement is made of light-colored squares, and there’s a metal railing behind the dog. The photo looks like it was taken with a slow shutter speed, which blurs the dog’s movement. This makes the image feel like it’s in motion. Next, check out Christopher Wool to see how he plays with movement and blur in his work.
