complex reality




so finally my brain decided to start producing ideas again! I have had this project in my head for a few weeks but i haven't really known how to transfer it onto an image. It's a continuation of a project i did at Parsons, where i incorporated text on bodies as a statement, but now i wanted to take it one step further and incorporate perhaps two images that are positioned together, allowing the interpretor to vision perhaps two realities. This is the first example that I have shot (shooting more next weekend!), it's not perfectly retouched...just an idea of how i might like it to be. The big issue right now is to get u guys to understand what i want to say with them and i don't think that i do that quite yet!
This image is a form of response to the little or almost nothing that models eat and still when we see them on an image we consider them "normal" since we are so used to that ideal. This girl is not perfect, she's normal...but is it normal to eat pills and a small piece of broccoli for dinner? I might actually add a question mark to the glass later to further enchance the question! I would love some comments about this so that i might come closer to how it more easily can be understood in a simple way! The double one is the one i like...but Pauline thought i would add both!
