Anna K ( Iconic Beauty)

I need to stop dreaming 
about taking you there
and diving in the stream of
the ancient debris

If I close my eyes
I'm in your room
surrounded by a mute
sound of written paper

A bowl filled with ink 
and stained flowers
Blood comes out of my eyes
and tears mark my face
in a sad grin of neon madness

I miss your absence

(Ilaria)

Cross yourself and face the wall: Dreams will help you not at all

Title quote Thomas Pynchon:


“Dream tonight of peacock tails,
Diamond fields and spouter whales.
Ills are many, blessings few,
But dreams tonight will shelter you.

Let the vampire's creaking wing
Hide the stars while banshees sing;
Let the ghouls gorge all night long;
Dreams will keep you safe and strong.

Skeletons with poison teeth,
Risen from the world beneath,
Ogre, troll, and loup-garou,
Bloody wraith who looks like you,

Shadow on the window shade,
Harpies in a midnight raid,
Goblins seeking tender prey,
Dreams will chase them all away.

Dreams are like a magic cloak
Woven by the fairy folk,
Covering from top to toe,
Keeping you from winds and woe.

And should the Angel come this night
To fetch your soul away from light,
Cross yourself, and face the wall:
Dreams will help you not at all.”

Beauty Icons

I'm still working on the series 'Iconic Beauty' I like to practice on Photoshop, I'm totally self-taught and still learning, but I enjoy to use it and to develope my ideas in a shorter time than with traditional media.

This time I worked on Chaterine Denevue, Kate Moss, Marianne Faithfull and Jane Birkin,gave them new characteristics through the digital collage, using malformed or unique features and details to recreate my personal beauty standards.
