Lucia 4 - Limited Edition of 1 Photograph

Formally trained in Fine Arts, with an interest in photography/video -- specializing with new photo media. This style is similar to the Glitch Art genre, the difference being in that these photos are uniquely captured (except Landscape Collection) and have NOT been processed by software, even though it may seem they have been somehow manipulated. This digital world has no boundaries, and not unlike the cosmos - has surprises. This digitized process is a unique discovery into the world of new media and its endless possibilities. Many of these photographs have multiple images - so look carefully. Color or lack thereof, composition, layering, balance and texture has a clear presence in most of this work and conveys an emotional response. Most of this collection, has captured an exploration into the feminine condition - which can be incredibly beautiful or ugly and perverse. Femininity can be harmonious, spiritual, natural, and sensual, however it can also be chaotic, exploitive and completely disconnected from any sort of normal, healthy, erotic sensual experience. This work was partially inspired by the media's ability to lure the female identity, the dark side - to objectify women. Over and over again, women who defend their choice to participate in porn culture or present pornified imagery of themselves claim that they are doing it for themselves or that they don’t care what anyone thinks, which of course begs the question: Why then, are you offering up this imagery for public consumption? Perhaps women are taught that they are permitted to be “strong" ONLY, if they are also sexualized and feminized. They think what they are offering is worthy, when in actuality, being completely exploited, either for sexual perversity or greed. It’s a world gone crazy … keeps a woman in chains - Tears for Fears “Sex is our deepest form of consciousness. It is utterly non-ideal, non-mental. It is pure blood-consciousness.... It is the consciousness of the night, when the soul is almost asleep.” — D. H Lawrence The following are links to videos that exemplifies the meaning - these are not direct links, so please copy and paste URL. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QzkK3ZtI9SU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gzm4PZowN-k https://www.facebook.com/reel/1155947042456021
