Description “My ashen face,
My snow-white skin,
Perfect isolation.
Time slips.
My asylum years
Will end in silence
Without tears.

All illusions lost,
All colours faded.
A senseless pain,
Transparent imperfection.”

[ Bird – Tristania ]


One of my very favourite photos of this series: psychotic, decadent, apathetic yet expressive, I think it summarises pretty well the act of leaving a ruined part of one’'s life behind. The set, the former asylum of Trieste, gave a freat contribution to the developement of the idea of the protagonist leaving after a life of horror, long forgotten in the asylum.

Aww...I luv the colour scheme of this one! and the model's expression fit right into it.
The brightness of his white shirt tend to stand out a bit against the grey-blue background but other
than that it's perrrfect faves

bravo sacherino ligio che aggiorni anche da qui/lì! ^^ Questa foto è bellissima, a me dà l'impressione che continui a sguazzarci nella rovina ma immagino sia normale che ognuno ci veda cose diverse a seconda della propria psicologia o.o come il test rorschach

In effetti l'idea era proprio che ormai la vita del protagonista fosse stata rovinata oltre il punto di non ritorno dentro il manicomio. Mi fa piacere che tu abbia colto il concept di fondo! *___*
