Description

Hi again ~~

I'm a bit busy with the college works so I can't find time enough to draw >: And that's why I'll show you my last work for the university:
An actualized Cefare Ripa's image using photomanipulation. Ripa is the father of iconography, but his artworks are a bit old and most of it it's a bit hard to understand.
I decided to actualize the concept of: deception (inganno for him). His version is that one: utpictura18.univ-montp3.fr/Ima…

I'll explain my image to make that easier: the model (me) is wearing a beatiful dress and she looks pretty (I hope xD) but in reality you can see her monster feet under all this beauty. You can also see how she's opening her arms, like she's going to hugh but at the same time she isn't looking directly, just like liars do. The shadow is cutting the face in two, to accentuate this dark gesture. She's on the sand, a place where you can't exactly know what's under your feet and you don't feel stable on it. In the sky, the clouds are appearing just behind her, like she's carrying the storm with her. And the last element is white feather boa, soft and pretty, but if you look closely, you can see stings popping up.
Personally I think all this elements can explain easily what ''Inganno'' means visually.

Desde mi critica creo que; simplificaste la perspectiva de la imagen en la que te basaste, se entiende fácil, sin embargo, las nubes detrás no lo parecen, parece humo a tu alrededor, además; el gesto de tu cara muestra un ligero placer como el de: "levantarse después de un buen sueño"  y no tanto de "mentirosa" (al menos para los que no te conocemos). Para todo lo demás te quedo muy bien. :) (Smile) 

Con todo respeto, pero: ¿Manipulaste el tamaño de tu cabeza, o es el ángulo de la cámara?
