Inspired by the words of a grunge icon Courtney Love: “I’m miss world somebody kill me pills”, this film photo-shoot has a melancholy feeling of what it feels to pretend to be someone you’re not and being tired of it,always faking for the others but never losing your charm.
This impressive photo-series was taken by Violeta Parisi and modeled by Manuela Gadano. All photos are captured on 35mm film and moreover Violeta sent along her series:
These are the lyrics of Courtney that touched my heart:
“I am the girl you know can’t look you in the eye
I am the girl you know so sick I cannot try
I am the one you want can’t look you in the eye
I am the girl you know I lie, and lie, and lie
I’m miss world, somebody kill me
Kill me pills
I’m miss world, watch me break and watch me burn
No one is listening my friends”
