Vise, spaime, reflecții emotive și psihologice

Kylie Woon - timiditate, imaginație, escapism / 2

Continuam drumul început aici prin hățișul emoțional al tinerei fotografe din Singapore.
Kilye își dezvăluie sufletul în fața noastră prin intermediul unor imagini compuse ( photoshop )
Pășiți cu grija și înțelegere pentru ca, deși nu recunoaștem deschis, trăirile ei sunt trăirile noastre.

This is just a photo I took in my sister's room.
Supposed to invoke feelings of 'quiet desperation' ( which is such a corny term haha )

disperare liniștită

quiet desperation

This is supposed to be about self restraint/control, the top figure being the 'conscience' or something similar keeping the person pinned down. - pe scurt: conștiința (autocontrolul ) ține frâiele vieții ( ne ține imobilizați )

autocontrol

self restraint

Our ropes... they exist and they don't. we were born into a society with certain expectations, certain limitations, certain possibilities.

it's not about 'fuck society', it's about accepting our ropes, accepting the reality we live in. and knowing that society and it's ropes were made up. they were created collectively in our minds. with that knowledge, we can live in society without having to feel like a failure when we don't live according to it's expectations... we can climb our ropes, not get tied up in them.

there are so many heavy hearts out there burdened by things in their minds because they are tied up and see no other way. there are other ways. climb your ropes, feel lighter!

Ne-am născut într-o societate care are anumite așteptări, anumite limite, anumite posibilități. Considerăm că am eșuat în viată dacă nu trăim asa cum așteaptă/vrea lumea din jurul nostru. Nu vă lăsați încorsetați de sfori ( limitări ), cățărați-vă pe ele!

I just felt like creating a picture about a really grotesque, sickly character. The character is revolting and almost alien-like to everyone else and hated but is pathetic and misunderstood too (hence the bowed head). It's stupid but I was kind of thinking of aliens when I made this. And how humans'd probably mistreat them if we ever met them. Like in District 9. And ET. Har har :P

Aesthetically, I was inspired by some artists I've always really liked- Brooke Shaden, John Currin and Ray Caesar because I admire their ability to make beautiful yet at times morbid or dark images. What better artwork to be inspired by for a picture like this!

the getaway

This is composed of 4 different shots. Two of the room and two of me. One long + short exposure of the room so I could get the view from outside instead of just an ugly overexposed white window.

And two of me- one of me with half my limbs 'climbing' the ceiling and the other of my other limbs doing the same thing! Then I glued them together.
