Alison Brady Captures Bloody Words and Bitter Sayings

— April 3, 2009 — Tech
If you ever felt extremely conscious about the words coming out of your mouth, then you will not find it hard to identify with the mysterious art photography by Alison Brady.

The New York-based photographer is known for her eccentric and often disturbing portraits that revolve mostly around female subjects. Evoking visuals of bloody words and getting wrapped around one’s own sayings, these idiosyncratic photos are an eco of feminine vanity and of uncontrolled bitterness that words sometimes enclose.

If sound was opaque, then would that be its aura? If you think about it, it wouldn’t be so bad to be able to grab and take some of our sayings back.
