SHAME

SHAME - Blog-Beitrag von Fotografin Sofia Dalamagka / 20.01.2021 00:49

Shame was born one late afternoon in January,2,maybe 3 years ago, in a room of a hotel in Budapest .For a long time it didn’t have any shape, even if its presence was there…

Looking back at that time, i don’t see a title or existence, as if i fell into a trap, and got out again…

Suddenly as time went by, there was a moment which sparkled the idea, there had to be a fight with reality, the camera became the connection between subconsciousness and existence…

The following pictures, are part of my own confessions, like a mirror which reflects fear, desire, phantasies, nightmares, memories…Nothing else…

In order to create this, i had to draw up my own memories or those of people close to me, i had to "borrow" their stories which i recreated from the beginning…

I tried, most of the time, through a surreal way, to express the different details of the body, the right to be angry, to be enraged, violent, sad…I met -found me, my own self on the other side, playing the role of the person being photographed or, being the photographer.

Every picture was a role-play, a real or imaginary person, a painful procedure which i had to imprint-reflect without knowing if i managed to show the war taking place inside us living in a fake, made out of paper, world, where morality and discrimination are at war with the perfection of a modern, neurotic woman who must hysterically accept and faithfully follow flawless beauty and filters on Instagram and social media…

I was influenced by photographers, painters, writers in order to create SHAME, for example Cindy Shermans work, the theatrical figures and stage persona she created inspired me to try and create a debate between these pictures so as to create* questions and not to give answers about how complicated women, as an existence, are…

De Bovouars "LE DEUXIEME SEXE I ET II" and the acceptance of her saying ""Woman is not born, you become."" made the original idea, stronger…

Her sexual implications in her play Claudia Cahum, her search of identity, the right to be different…. >

Frida Kahlo’s surreal mood, her taut self-portraits

Hair

Hair - Blog-Beitrag von Fotograf Andreas Ebner / 03.01.2021 20:03

Kaum einer, der "Hair"* liest, denkt an das Kultmusical, welches den Zeitgeist der späten 1960er Jahre versprüht. Protest, Schrei nach Liebe und Freiheit. Die Kunst, die Fotografie bietet Mittel, eben diesen Schrei zu verbildlichen.

Wildheit, Schrei, Hair — das ist es, was Becky** bei diesem Shooting verkörpert. Nicht einfach Model, nein, die Bilder arbeiten Emotionen heraus, Gefühle, Gedanken, all das, was bewegt, was Menschen bewegt.

Sehe ich diese Bilder, so spüre ich den Wind der 1960er. Ich rieche den süßlichen Duft der Freiheit, den stolz, Althergebrachtes anzweifeln zu dürfen. Meine alten Knochen regen sich wieder, stolz schüttele ich es allen Normen und all den eingeschlafenen Füßen entgegen – HAIR !

* „Spitzenfinger, Sonnensoße, Silberpapier, ein Bettfedernsturm oder graublaue Uniformen. Zum Teufel, wir wollen nicht so weitermachen. Ich will mein Haar nicht vom Stahlhelm frisieren lassen.“ – Rado/Ragni: aus den deutschen Programmheften. Hair wurde in den USA von 1967 Off-Broadway und von 1968 bis 1972 am Broadway ohne Unterbrechung aufgeführt. (Textauszüge Wikipedia)
