Här är min synopsis till bodymakeuptävlingen. Här är även en bild som jag har fått av en vän som kom och tittade på tävlingen. Det kommer fler bilder som den proffessionella fotografen tog, men dessa får jag senare på en CD-skiva. Vill ni se fler bilder från tävlingen kom då med i min facebook grupp Makeup Artist Shara! Där finns ett helt album!  

 

The midnight sun never sets - Synopsis

  

My vision of what I'm about to create is inspired by the ancient cultures of Mesopotamia, their godessess and their spiritual world. My creation is to be performed augmented by the song Shandar by Leo Flavum. Shandar is Summeran* for "night shadow"*, an implausible occurence in theory, but who knows what might manifest itself beneath a midnight sun? This is what I intend to depict with my creation.

My design and body makeup is meant to symbolize the power play between Darkness and Light (the two forces that can't exist without the other). I envision the enigmatic, dancing shadows in the bright wondrous blood red shine that comes of a midnight sun. My design is meant to evoke a sense of mystery and mysticism; an ancient godess visiting our time for a brief moment draped in shadows which, in the ambient light of the midnight sun, brings forth memories from time long gone. The godess and her spirit awakens.

My ideas concerning coloration is biased towards coal, ash, black, fire, blood, red, shimmer, gold and orange. I wanna give- and create a sense of something beautifully bright while at the same time reflecting the combined poignancy and bittersweetness of the dark.

My presentation will take 2 minutes and is to be presented along with a verse of the song Shandar

 

 

 

Summeran is an artlanguage created by Leo Flavum based on the now extinct languages of Akkad & Sumer

 

 

 

Shandar

Shandar na

Lost the count

Of all that we've been through

Talon heart

All light upon

The darkness in you

Sun retreats into hazy lore

Peoples fate by itself distorts

Walk with me as the night comes forth

Coming forth

Silver strings through a raven's hair

In your dreams I still be there

You call to me as the coal is glowing

Meld with my fire

Silver tears through your raven's hair

Crimson dreams, awaits you there

You call, I answer the coal is glowing

Meld with my fire
