A gallery of mixed emotions
A picture can in some contexts say at least as much about the photographer as about the subject. An artistic portrait is also a form of portrait of the photographer's inner self. Regardless, it would not be possible to create if there were not wonderful people to portray.
Black and gray portrait
When the world of art becomes part of the ordinary world
Created from a original painting (open source) and my original photo mix together.
Allegorical scene – from Dante's Inferno, artist Cyprian Kamil Norwid. Created sometime between 1850-1900.
Labyrinth
I just want to honour you for the person you are and feel a deep, affectionate desire for you, without expecting anything in return or requiring any commitment. But to be able to express that, our words and feelings must first pass through a labyrinth full of thorn bushes, so easy to get lost in, bleeding and crying. It is as if we have entered an eternal purgatory, to feel and see that our finest emotion creates torment in each other. It’s as though we haven’t understood that the labyrinth’s purpose is to bring balance and calm, not to confuse those who seek its centre.
If, for some unfathomable reason, there were any gods looking down into this labyrinth, they would say: “Now you guys have to get your shit together. Shape up!”
Guilt
Are all feelings of guilt always bad? Can feelings of guilt create something positive? Can feelings of guilt also bring excitement and pleasure? Is the feeling of guilt created by your own thoughts or it is by the judgment of others?
Is the guilt you feel before it becomes a guilt the worst guilt to feel?😈🙂
(I'm talking about guilt that can arise in ordinary life and not crime)
Demands
We place so many demands on ourselves about how we should be. Demands that we cannot reach and that we do not talk about.
We can talk about feelings and diagnoses but not how to handle them in everyday life. We are afraid of insights because it can threaten everyday existence. Afraid of being judged and afraid of losing what we have and of course hurting others.
Erica Jong, author, expressed it all in a quote that can be seen as a metaphor for everyday life:
“Even if you loved your husband, it seemed impossible to avoid that day when fucking him became as boring as eating cheese spread (cheese on a tube)”
I was born with a broken heart.
I survived, but I feel a dark angel has followed me ever since, constantly reminding me that everything is impermanent. That have give me a broken soul but also an open mind full of happiness
