Swollen Flesh
-Seeing my flesh in a different state.
-This is the after-math of the anxiety that I spoke about in blog post 14.
-Swollen eyes look voluminous which interests me.
-I’m not sure YET if I will use these images. Should I move away from the face?
I have previously documented my flesh early in the morning to see it in a different way.
-It is a very physical change and the memory of it is still raw. I can remember how it felt to wake up and feel like my eyes were barely open and feel them stinging when I blinked.
It’s interesting when you think about my earlier comment:
“…there is the need (urge) to externalise this feeling. To replicate the emotions one feels on the inside with what can be seen and understood by others on the outside.”
Through externalising the emotion of anxiety/fear/ losing control through the act of crying, a physical change in my flesh was created.
THIS IS IMPORTANT!
Perhaps these are important images that will help me render emotive and most importantly ‘active paint’.
