“I used to feel so alone in the city. All those gazillions of people and then me, on the outside. Because how do you meet a new person? I was very stunned by this for many years. And then I realized, you just say, ‘Hi.’ They may ignore you. Or you may marry them. And that possibility is worth that one word.”
— Augusten Burroughs

Today I finished up my Regina Spektor themed project for my photo class. I wanted to create two designs that focused on different aspects of her musical style. The first piece traces back to her traditional and classical influences, with soft floral colors and a minimal design, clean and simple.
The second refers to her exquisite oddities. From the strange, yet beautiful lyrics she creates; with a variety of cultural references and whimsical narratives, to the way she incorporates funny sounds into her work.
It’s just that her music makes me feel a million things at once that sometimes it’s overwhelming, like the brightest light coming in to a dark room.
Enjoy :)
