These works of art acted as a concept of inspiration for our film making process because art is a visual form of expressionism and uses no typography or oral mechanisms and therefore the observers of the piece are left to their own interpretations and understanding of the artwork. This is particularly relevant to our film making process because we are choosing to have a a silent opening to our film, trying to create almost a phantoscope feel to our project. We also want to make our movie look very raw, and realistic yet not quite natural which is why these paintings by Nicola Samori had a significant appeal due to the realistic imagery yet dead chilling color choice and rawness. Nicola Samori scratches off the surface of dark intense paintings to unveil previous purposeful layers of work, making the peice display a sense of destruction and ruin- however also beauty in the artistic tenchnique. this ties in with our movie opening where the youth of the young girl is meant to connote positivity and happiness yet is twisted like these paintings and given a more warped connotation of horror and danger. We wanted to give our movie a macabre feel, alike to these expressive paintings. Also, Samori is said to create art forms like the ones above to reveal 'a true and hidden identity' much like the identities that remain enigmas in the begging of our film.
