Amini+Evan+Metaphor+Research



The first photograph is by the photographer was shot by Julieanne Kost, which has an interesting compositional viewpoint. The second photo was shot by maggie taylor, which shows an interesting hidden metaphor that I am not able to understand. The third photograph was created by the photographer Join Paul Caponigro, which shows great colors that have a pleasing effect to the eye. The lyrics that I am using for my photograph are “Cause I was filled with poison, But blessed with beauty and rage”. This line comes from the song Ultraviolence by Lana Del Rey. I chose these lyrics because I felt that they show a powerful message that Lana was trying to portray when writing this song. They shows that she is dark on the outside, yet beautiful on the outside. Someone might think that Lana is evil on the inside, but really she is just depressed and sad. This lyric will inspire my project by using a subject that has an emotional feeling similar to the metaphor, but still have a less literal take on it. I would like to incorporate a strong mood in my photograph.
