HOROSCOPE COLLECTION | SCORPIO (You CHOOSE the Exhibition Showpiece!)
Presenting our next Horoscope Collection, SCORPIO.
THE MOVEMENT OF THE HOROSCOPE COLLECTION IS ABOUT USING THE MODERN MEDIUM OF PHOTOGRAPHY TO TELL THE STORIES OF THE ORIGINAL MYTHOLOGIES. THE CONSTELLATIONS WERE STUDIED AND VIEWED AS MYTHOLOGICAL STORIES. DIFFERENT CULTURES, COUNTRIES, AND REGIONS HAD THEIR OWN DEPICTIONS AS WELL. GETTING TO LEARN ABOUT EACH ONE HAS BEEN COMPLETELY RIVETING. WHILE EDUCATING MYSELF, I GOT TO LEARN HOW IN-DEPTH THESE ZODIACS REALLY ARE.
THE DEPICTION OF SCORPIO IS SIMPLY THE SCORPION.
SCORPIO SYMBOLISM
FOR MY PHOTOGRAPHY CHOICES, I DECIDED TO DO SOMETHING ABSTRACT AND ARTISTIC. THE HOROSCOPE SCORPIO IS A WATER SIGN WITH THE COLOUR REPRESENTATION OF BLACK.

“Scorpio, in Greek Mythology, comes from the story of Orion. This giant of a man was the son of Poseidon and Euryale, and was also said to be the most handsome man alive. He and Artemis were hunting partners. Orion was a great hunter who had boasted that he could kill any animal on Earth. Gaia (Earth) was angry with Orion and sent Scorpius, a giant scorpion to kill him. The two fought and both were killed in the struggle, but from their ashes, rose the constellations Scorpius and Orion.”

”Scorpio mirrors the black of night so it may come as no surprise that Halloween; All Saints Day and Day of the Dead all occur under the dominance of the Scorpio Sun. The thin line between our world and that of the spirits is said to grow even thinner during Scorpio season, strengthening our powers to connect with the Underworld.”

"SCORPIO lives deep underwater in the throes of tides we can’t see, swarming with colorful schools of fish and petrifying predators. It’s a fixed, consolidating sign; it is darkly self-aware of being self-contained.”

”Scorpio is fixed water. As such, it maintains. Fixed water is solid water which means it’s like ice. Ice is cold but also hot at the same time. When you get an ice cube out of the ice tray, be careful not to cut yourself as ice can cut like a knife.”

IN THE STORIES OF SCORPIO, ALTHOUGH WITH FEW VERSIONS, I SAW THE SCORPIO AS THE ASSASSIN. SUMMONED. USING HIS VENUM TO DEFEND AND KILL HIS TARGET. THE POISON. TAKING OVER, AND FLOODING IN.
