Karina Lopez

Richard Avedon, "Veruschka"

1967

 

I chose this picture because it makes me feel peaceful. It looks like everything around her is dark and gloomy, like as if she's going through tough time right now. But she refuses to let it bring her down so she starts doing something childlike and fun like twirling around on your toes like ballerina. And its working, she seems so carefree and light like if she could just fly away in that blissful moment. She knows that Even though things aren't ideal she'll be fine, and It makes me feel like I'll be fine. So if things aren't going the best in life or things start to seem like they're falling apart you can put on a pretty dress and just twirl or dance around to forget about all the shitty things around you. All you need to do is disregard everything else and do something silly that makes you smile.
