Choke Me

“Do what I say
And don’t you ever betray me
You are here to obey me
Are you not?..” – these are the words that ended my post yesterday, and these are the words that I will use to talk about my new work and what inspired it.

In general, I am a walking problem who manages to get into one or another toxic relationship, from which I myself then “get nuts”. The person liked everything about me – my attitude towards her, my reasoning, a certain similarity of worldview and musical tastes. But the person did not accept who I am. It was incomprehensible to her why I consider myself to be people of the middle sex. It is not clear why I “impersonate someone else”. Why I create those works that, as it turned out, can inspire someone. Part-time, recently I really fell in love with the song of Eurovision 2026 contestant Alexandra Capitanescu – Choke Me. It got into sync with these relationships, because it is about something similar. Let’s go through the details (does anyone else like this?..)

Perhaps the most obvious element is the chains – they are a symbol of oppression. That you are subjugating someone. On the legs you can see the inscriptions “Love Me” and “Choke me” – this is a direct reference to the lyrics of the song, as if hinting that one person wants to be loved, but, at the same time, she “suppresses” the other person with her rejection. Ties are attached to the braids – in this case they refer to sexism (if by nature your gender is male – you…have to “wear a tie”). The main element of clothing is also not accidental – I have a Japanese-style dress in my wardrobe. In this case, it is a symbol of servitude. That you are in someone’s power.

Tomorrow I’ll tell you a little about how the work was created and what the preparation was like for it, and now I suggest you enjoy the original source of inspiration 😊

“All I need is your love
I want it to choke me, choke me, choke me
Born for you to control, I want you to choke me
Ch-ch-ch-choke me, ch-ch-ch-choke me
Love me, make my lungs explode
All I need is your love, I want it to choke me
Ch-ch-ch-choke me, ch-ch-ch-choke me”
