People seem to be misinterpreting this series...

This is not a "fuck glamour" series, I'm accually quite fond of glamour photography, it's one of the only forms that is still effective at commercially reinventing itself, and that is admirable. It is also not a direct stab at Kate Moss and her publicised coke useage --as suggested by someone on another site--I could care less.
It is a comment on the current artistic trend that has made violence glamourous, especially here on DA, but also in pop culture (take a look at Die Another Day by Madonna [link] ). This is not to say I'm against it, I would be a hypocrite if I did. I think it is incredibly effective imagery, and in the end, that is exactly what I am going for here. Only I took a different approch to it...
Whereas most macabre artists make the model sexy and posed, with blood and gore, this pose is vulnerable and unattractive, yet the "blood and gore" are pearls and sparkles (the black eye was suppose to be much shinier and the blood is sparkley, it just didn't end up showing up because of lighting difficulties).

Anyway...I just thought I would clear that up.
