quiet healings we do not talk about



                                              


its a weird time for me. checking out of life seconds at a time . digesting feelings abt my feelings. writing again because i realised i stopped. i think i know why i stopped too. exam season is always like this. i procrastinate until it's too late and suddenly i'm interested in everything but revising. i want to finally read all of marya hornbacher's other books other than 'wasted'. i'm currently finishing off junot diaz's 'the wondrous life of oscar wao'. drinking more green tea than ever except i got lazy and stopped using the leaves and now am going through boxes of twining green tea bags which isn't as good but like i said, i'm lazy. i'm trying to make money too, replying to random gigs on craigslist here and there and they should eventually amount to something. or at least enough. one i signed up for ended up being handing out leaflets at 3am in central london? (i turned that one down). i'm moving out next year.. i hope. mocks in 2 days and i haven't started revising. i should get on that. i'm glad summer's near but i'm scared to lose this life / teenagehood / moment.

Alex Prager














I came across the work of Alex Prager today and immediately fell in love. her photos are so beautiful and have a very cinematic atmosphere about them. i like that the subjects are staged and each photo suggests a narrative. they remind me of 1960s/70s america because of the fashion and styling of the women mainly. the colours are so bright and refreshing and remind me of William Eggleston's work who I admire too. Prager also made a collection of short films titled Touch of Evil featuring different actors. my favourite film was the one with Mia Wasikowska (you can find them all here).

been discovering lots of new artists and photographers and it's really inspiring me to make art. i'm going to put all my recent favourite photos/art/tumblr pics/film stills into one big blog post later. back to school tomorrow ughhhh need 2 go read (that means start AND FINISH) Pride & Prejudice and Persuasion before then. i feel like i've completely wasted half term... counting down to xmas holidays now (39 days!)
