pedophelia booms in japan

My dissertation has connection with pedophilia/adolescent girls so I was researching through internet and found shocking news about japanese society today.
it made me furious and im quiet astonished about what I watched. 
I do understand the mysterious aura of adolescent girls have and I agree that you can get inspirational and emotional effect images of these girls but its just...objecting girls just as a sexual view and abusing way is too much :(

dissertation intro

It took me days and days to write a short introduction! 
but I guess it helped me to figure the direction i should go :)




''This paper will introduce a detailed insight of a current Japanese subculture fashion called ‘Gosurori’, and how Gosurori became a wildly known, popular Japanese look around the world, and how the style was fundamentally influenced by Western culture. There will be an exploration of how Japanese media such as, magazines, tv and websites create the ultimate beauty and trends, and how Japanese girls are obsessed with dolls, princesses and Western adolescent girls look.''

A footnote on LiW's history:

Lolita in Wonderland is the brainchild of model, performer and Lolita Fashion devotee Boykitten and owner of gallery/art/performance/event space Resistance Gallery Garry Vanderhorne.
These guys wanted to create a exclusive club night for people like them who love Elegant Gothic lolita and Japanese fashion in general, and the idea blossomed into a mini festival celebrating the fashion and it's off-shoots.
There will be the party that was originally devised, but there will also be art, music, workshops and, most importantly, cake!

inside my head is messed at moment

it's just haaaaAAAaard! 
i wish i could be more friendly and sociable person. 
one of the things that I've learn from fashion university is it's better to know more people and be sociable person to be successful. 
and it's like my major issue for me :S 
of course I want to be successful and make new friends but i think im actually shy to speak single words and too negative person :S I think too much every time before I speak(slow) and i'm actually blank when I meet people. 

and oh.... I watched ''forth kind''.... I really think Alien does exist and they are horrible :< 

I need play Resident Evil 5 again. havent touch PS3 for so long....




toy museum

I finally went to the toy museum with my friends.
We only had 30min. to view the show'' but it was really interesting :)
i love dolls and the atmosphere brought me back to my childhood. well I brought up in Asian culture so my home wasn't like the museum where surrounded by Western toys but it was more like where I wanted to be when I was little. I really would like to have a photo shoot there but the place charges £150 per hour...:(
might want to try to compromise with the owner...

each words for each photos

So I was kept thinking about the ''meaning'' of the images for my major project. 
I have plan for locations, clothes and lots of inspirations but I didn't seem to think about the story of my images. 
Like why did I choose Nunhead cemetery for locations?, why do I want Piano for my shoot?, etc etc.....
Then I started to get worried about what if 15 images didn't connect to each other? what if people didn't see the way I see in my images? what if all of my images didn't make any sense???
........
...mm..thinking real harddd......


I watched ''Adolescent girl Utena'' over and over to regain the inspiration of the anime. I found that Utena got lots of meaningful theme behind the story and I thought it would be good to collect the words from the anime and  express each words by 15 images for my major project. I think that makes meaning story! :D 


*Meet
*Jealousy
*Labyrinth
*Memory 
*Prohibition
*self
*choice
*friendship
*reason
*love
*adoration
*conviction


...2more words left and I am still finding the perfect fit words :< 
be continued....

a photographer who likes take pictures of girls


so I decided to research on the photographers who like to take pictures of girls.....


and i found this


by BIll Henson' work


Bill Henson (1955–): Untitled 1992-93
C Type photograph
127.0 x 180.0 cms
edition 2/5
Presented in 2004 by the Newcastle Region Art Gallery Foundation
Courtesy of the artist and Roslyn Oxley9 Gallery, Sydney
Nick says: This dark and compelling photograph of three nude figures, with flesh that is gleaming through a waste land, at a time when the light is neither light or dark, makes you think about what might be in the frame and it is up to you, the viewer, to bring some narrative to the work. It is a look in on the dark side of desire.
