Parisian Pentacles

In the tarot card deck, the nine of pentacles represents abundance. It is illustrated by a woman, dressed in a golden gown, embroidered with red flowers, standing in the middle of lush garden. Her right hand rests upon one of the nine giant coins dispersed around her, whilst her fingers entwine on a vine of grapes. On her left hand a hooded falcon is resting, showing the woman’s control over the element of air and therefore control over her thoughts (basically she’s rich and her head is screwed tight on her shoulders. She doesn’t go crazy every time there’s a sale on whatever channel has replaced QVC now. Apparently she prefers gardening and playing blindman’s bluff with a falcon). Taking inspiration from that and from this lovely streetstyle photo shot by the incredible Sandra Semburg during the Paris Fashion Week of 2018/19, I made my own interpretation of this card. It reminds me of the incredible luck I had of living in Paris for a good part of my life and the amazing encounters and friendships I made in the first place where I felt free and unencumbered by my “culture” (seriously Kelis had it right “you know sometimes you just gotta... HEY! RUN AWAY FROM HOME!). Of course for the pentacles I had to do some some a bit funky so I threw in a little Dragonball Z reference with the flowerhorn fishes, I call them my little bubbleheads. Bubblehead #5 is actually my little mascot for now (in case you’re wondering the five of pentacles represents financial ruin... just realized that and it’s a pretty accurate representation of my actual situation.. HEY BEING A ROGUE ARTIST IS HARD at first lol BUT patience IS A WEAPON... just ask Mother Nature ;-b).

Dans le jeu de carte de tarot, le neuf de pentacles représente le concept de l’abondance. Cette dernière est illustrée par l’image d’une dame portant une robe dorée, brodée de fleurs rouges se promenant dans un grand jardin luxuriant. Sa main droite posée sur une des neuf pièces d’or qui l’entoure, tient aussi une grape de raisin (ouais ouais la nana fait son propre pinard ;-b). Sur sa main gauche un faucon se trouve posé avec les yeux couvert représentant le pouvoir de cette dame sur l’air et par association son contrôle sur ses pensées. Prenant inspiration sur cette carte j’ai créé ma propre version de ce tableau en utilisant pour base une photo de l’incroyable photographe Sandra Semburg, prise pendant la Fashion Week 2018/19 de Paris. Cela me rappel la chance que j’ai eu de pouvoir vivre pendant un bon moment à Paris ou je me suis senti vraiment libre d’être moi même pour la première fois sans le poids de ma “culture” pour me casser les couilles et où je me suis fait un cercle d’amis que beaucoup de gens rêve d’avoir. Bien sûr j’ai aussi jeté une référence à Dragonball Z avec mes petits poissons boules-de-dragon-magiques parce-que euuuuuh WHY NOT?! Avouez ils sont trop cutes non? Poisson #5 est ma petite mascotte pour le moment et c’est marrant parce-que le 5 de pentacles représente la ruine financière (ce qui est précisément le cas de ma situation actuelle MAIS personne n’a dit que devenir un artiste allait être facile donc je me pleins pas et après tout la vie c’est comme le camembert, ça pue mais c’est bon à croquer ;-b).

Na semana passada rolou a New York Fashion Week e agora está acontecendo a London Fashion Week, o que mais chama a atenção no estilo de rua é a quantidade de trench coats. Logo o clima começa a esfriar por aqui, então é hora de tirar seu trench coat do armário e levá-lo para passear. 📷 @sandrasemburg via @stylesightworldwide https://www.instagram.com/gosto_disto_moda/p/BuFFAs1geVR/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=39i06u9f070j

Credit to @sandrasemburg : Ten years of streetstyle and this piece by @oldceline is probably one of the most precious I’ve seen. The fabric super thick and luminous, I found it in a German online Vintage shop and jumped on it. I might never wear it out but I just love looking at it. #hometreasures #florals ▫️ ▪️ ▫️ ▪️ ▫️ #ooft #tasty #style #creative #fashion #art #photography #aesthetic #refined #expression #balance #duality #individuality #philosophy #kaizen #spirituality #psychology #design #famouswhendead https://www.instagram.com/p/B-uakIcDMze/?igshid=ikzjpakf0mkv
