Inedible Beauty

Why Not?
I am haunted by Vinny’s words that she is scared of my hobby of dressing up as a woman. I explained to her and we understood each other that this is not a hobby of dressing up, but about creating an image that I use for shooting. That is, I need a model – and I become one. But the internal “yin-yang” are constantly dissatisfied with something, and this happened here too, when I was lying in the bathroom yesterday after creativity and thinking that… I can’t stand my dirty (after work) hands.
I feel like some kind of a wimp who walks around in torn clothes, constantly drunk, dirty. Inside, I felt disgusted by the understanding that I cannot make myself “gender neutral” after work – that is, a simple man with just clean, trimmed nails. And I went from the opposite – if there is something that gives me away as “too manly”, something should be opposed to it. So I decided to try painting my nails. Not in the sense of doing a manicure, painting everything in one colour. No. I’m talking about decorating. Today, as an example, I painted half of two nails on each hand. Because I thought it would be interesting that it would look painted on one side, and on the other “with a hint” of the fact that I cracked my fingers with a hammer somewhere, and the nail turned black.
This doesn’t mean that I will constantly and every day come up with something new – no. But if I have a desire, or if there is some design idea – I will implement it. Because this is me – it is a part of me.
I am increasingly reminded of Dizzy from Guilty Gear. I even had the idea of getting a tattoo with her, on one half of the wing where Necro is, write “Saint”, on the other with Undine – “Crea”. Who knows, maybe someday…
I Am Under Water
The idea for this work arose almost immediately when I saw the video for the song Breathe by the band Glass Bridges.
Boat
Interestingly, when I was looking for these things – they had two purposes. The first of them is for securing a boat. The second is for securing cattle. So, when I fix this on the wall and tie myself to it – I will be something between… a boat and cattle. Am I the only one who sees a figure with a cow’s head in a boat?..
Music Power
I had this idea for quite some time. But something always prevented its implementation – either the lack of a player, or the lack of a “tube with blood”. So I postponed its implementation. And today the stars aligned, and I decided to close this gestalt.
I wanted to do it in a more classical form, but I didn’t like the colours I got, the composition and in general. So I decided to play with the colours and as a result I got what is in the picture. I like that it looks like digital art. It adds a certain artificiality that I needed.
I didn’t add any song to this work or idea, because music is its basis. Those who like music like me will understand what this work is about. So no explanation is needed here 🙂
New mAge
The image was taken in one shot. Without Photoshop and AI. I am the model, my wife took the picture. One of the first works of this kind.
More to come…
Do you feel alive?..
“So do you feel alive?
Where’s the light inside your eyes?
You sold your soul on a plate of gold
You don’t know who you are no more…” Read More
Pie with Love and Anger
“Hatred for nits, love for one’s neighbor
They mix the dough, their faces are the dough (mm)
When they bake I will eat a pie with love, anger
Love is more (No!)” Read More
Not Sorry (Series)
The primary idea was a song by Terra Naomi. I wanted to show the image of a self-proclaimed womanizer who returned after meeting his mistress and “forgot” to bring himself back to normal. Read More
