So I am in a photo class and I have to be working on one project for the whole quarter and I am feeling a little lost so I thought it might be good to blog about my progress so far to get myself motivated.
I'm Jenna. I promise to only blog about things I am excited about because I like being excited and remembering that there is beauty in the world.
While I want this to be a style and fashion blog, I have a lot of interests and they just come creeping on in. A lot of things influence me and my art of any style. My experiences become too intertwined to have a blog about just one thing.
So I have decided that this is a place to record explorations and adventures.
"Fashion is one of the very few forms of expression in which women have more freedom than men. And I don’t think it’s an accident that it’s typically seen as shallow, trivial, and vain. It is the height of irony that women are valued for our looks, encouraged to make ourselves beautiful and ornamental… and are then derided as shallow and vain for doing so. And it’s a subtle but definite form of sexism to take one of the few forms of expression where women have more freedom, and treat it as a form of expression that’s inherently superficial and trivial. Like it or not, fashion and style are primarily a women’s art form. And I think it gets treated as trivial because women get treated as trivial."
Amazing photos! I looked at your flickr page too, it's very impressive <3
ReplyDeleteAlso, i'm putting together a blogroll and was wondering if you might want to do a link swap? No rush, just let me know whenever. Thanks! xoxo
