For my lyrical collage I decided to do the song "Nicotine" by Anet, which is featured in the popular movie called "Thirteen." The song is analyzed to be about breaking away from social norms, usual trends and corrupt societies to just let go and be able to be oneself. Many of the lyrics hint escaping world, such as "we're all numbers in the numbers game" and "show me a day where nobody is killed." The reason I choose this song is because of its unique song lyrics that I knew I'd be able to represent in various ways through images and manipulated photographs. The specific lyrics I chose were "O I love to touch your mind when I sit in your car, Coca Cola baby's signing autographs on mars."
For my image I thought I'd show a couple escaping somewhere, which was represented by the couple in the car flying off into space and to Mars. The couple's heads are closely touching, representing the "touching the mind." Behind the couple in red I made a custom brush of a neuron that is found in the brain when the mind is activated and gave it a custom texture throughout. I also have the footprint of a baby on Mars, which is a direct representation of "signing autographs on Mars" as well as old fashioned coke bottles flying throughout space. I thought of the concept of zero gravity so I made the coke bottles scattered, looking like they may be floating. The coke bottles were also created by a custom paint brush image.
Below are all the images incorporated into my collage:
