The picture of the winner is complementary to that of the loser and vice-versa. In TV pictures of the Olympics 2000 in Sydney, the Australian artist Tracey Moffatt captured precisely this psychological moment on the brink of transition in the dialectics of winning and losing. Her heroines are those ranked fourth in the competition, excluded from the winning pedestal. The tragedy of those who just missed out on the victory is caught in a split second of emotion, where belief and disbelief still hold the balance before frustration, resignation, deception and rage take grasp. A moment which, beyond the symbolic status of nationality, race and gender, shows nothing but the drama of the individual person. |
