PEACEFUL AND CHAOS

Peaceful and chaos



I come with no wrapping or pretty pink bows.
I am who I am, from my head to my toes.
I tend to get loud when speaking my mind.
Even a little crazy some of the time. (...)
By S Raine.

I always had a thing for this poem. This poem is really heart-touching. It moved me to the core. You realize as you grow up how people try so hard to fit in society and be normal. I've always disregarded being "normal." What's the point? Why would I be someone I am not? People nowadays have lost their personalities. They no longer live according to who they are, but according to what others say they are.  

The poem is a message for a change in our society. Young people live by what people say they are and not by who they want to be. Years ago we were told, "Be yourself!" So many young girls struggle these days to be what they see, not who they are. So it was very rare to see people writing about stuff like self-confidence and how much of a struggle it is to go being yourself without being affected by what other people describe you. 
In a personal manner I think it is very relatable, it describes me a lot because I tend to be someone who I knew I wasn't, but I was anyway. It helped me understand myself more. It really inspired me this poem throughout my life and deciding that no one can change me but me. However, I'm not saying I'm no longer struggling with this. We should be proud of who we are. We should not try to change ourselves in order to please someone. We should be always thankful and satisfied with what we have because many people in this world are struggling for the blessings we have today, and sadly we often don't realize it.

CHEMA MADOZ

Chema Madoz Over the years, Chema Madoz has developed a very intimate style. He remains faithful to the use of black and white because it gives the work a small distance from reality and introduces us to a new universe full of life, much more complicated than the color of an object and the message that can transmit its images. "Sin título", 2004. The way to express and represent your images is really admirable. His way of taking photos with simple objects, such as books, watches, spoons, matches, musical scores or water in their different states. The accuracy and purity of Chema Madoz's photographs sometimes means that they have been classified as cold. Certainly, it eliminates any possible expression of feeling or emotion and only the poetic melancholy of its colorless photographs seems to appear on occasion. When choosing the frames, the light or the objects, it shows a clinical rigor and moves us once more away from the real world, it places us in an

LIGHTNING

LIGHTNING                                             I took this photo of my friend María. To make it, I used a hard source of light that illuminates from the bottom in the two pictures and the picture that is in the middle, from above. The pictures from the side are darker. I used an up-look light, an artificial light and other elements like the diagonal line.  The type of shot is a close-up shot took to form a hero view angle.  First I took the picture, and then I re-framed it on the computer because there were some elements in the back of the photos that I didn't want them to show up, I also photoshopped the pictures where in some spots a weird light in the corners in the pictures where. The format of the picture is 1:1.  The high contrast between white and black gives us a powerful visual weight.   I told her to make the psychopath stare,  which is related to the "predatorial" gaze ; it is as if the  psychopath  is directing all of his intensity  toward

PERCEPTION

PERCEPCTION Illusions and perspective I took these pictures on the Barcelona Illusion Museum, the background it's all painting hat were on the wall, I just had to find the right angle and perspective to be able to tell a story and to make the photo meaningful.    #FacesEverywhere Here, we can see a smiley face, the two eyes are the red buttons and the smile is in the middle of the object. Visual Metaphor Basically, this picture represents the meaning that each book is a  world. It's able to tell a story of different and variety of characters whether they are based on real-life people or imaginary ones.
