BLUE WORLD
This series is inspired by the song “Blue” by Eiffel 65
But why?
Well great question. It was an extremely popular song in the 90s when I was growing up, but was primarily listened to as a funny/dance song. However, when I was alone and listening to the lyrics, I realized it was a much more meaningful metaphor for someone suffering with depression. So I decided to create what it looked like to me in my head for someone to live in a blue world as described.
listen up here’s a story
About a little guy
That lives in a blue world,
And all day and all night
And everything he sees is just blue
Like him inside and outside
Blue his house
With a blue little window
And a blue corvette
And everything is blue for him,
And himself and everybody around
Cause he ain’t got nobody to listen to
I have a blue house
With a blue window
Blue is the colour of all that I wear
Blue are the streets
And all the trees are too
I have a girlfriend and she is so blue
Blue are the people here
That walk around
Blue like my corvette, its standing outside
Blue are the words I say
And what I think
Blue are the feelings
That live inside me
This series is an art series completely dreamed up, styled, and photographed by photographer Rae Marshall and modeled by Matthew Sherman on the island of Oahu, Hawaii.
