Part 3
The book I chose this time is fairly different from the last two.
I think the reason why is because I added the tag : “Oma” which gave it a different spin.
Pink wasn’t relevant anymore and now I was looking for something more “serieus “ ( in my eyes ).
Something that would interest my grandma ; culture, black , photography ; in particular portraits.
It was hard since we could not choose from the design section this time and my grandma owns a few Asian artworks that are considered design; things such as old Asian jewellery.
The way I had searched for a book was by looking for books with the colour pink but now pink wasn’t anything near my grandma.
So the next step was to find something that had to do with photography ; but the books were not placed on subject but on name and god o god o god I had no clue.
Since my gran loves the colour black; clothing, furniture , nail polish, makeup etc, I started looking at books with a black cover.
Then I found the right book, it was not at all something I could find in my grandma’s house but still something that reminded me of my gran.
Black, cultured, portraits and photographs.
But most important, it interested me a lot.
Now I’ve borrowed this book from the library and read it from the beginning until the end and from the end until the beginning I can conclude that I’m a little conflicted whether this book connects to the others at all.
I’ll take it step by step.
- Fashionable: Yes, I think it’s fashionable since the people and the way they dress inspires me a lot and in a way they are fashionable, so I do believe this is the case.
- Difference: No, at first I thought ok this is different; it shows the differences between the people who are portraited in the book. But when I was done “reading” it I found out that they have more in common than they have in difference. I had this feeling of solidarity when I was done. So I think I’ll change that tag to solidarity instead of difference.
- Oma: Yes this book reminds me very much of my grandma, I already explained why so there’s no need to repeat myself.
But the thing is that I find it more emotionally loaded than fashionable. So I’ll change that too.
I think I’ve might done everything too much in a hurry.
Or I just connect books way to easily to some other things.
Might just be that.
Anyways.
Hereby: in common, emotionally loaded and oma.
