Azlan
|
|
I love photography. It is like composing songs which the melody is so eclectic it could be any tunes the shooter wants. It could be jazzy and mellow at times, but the way you hear the tunes, it could be indie instead. How diverse it is, you just can imagine. How big the impact it will deliver, depends on the instruments you can hear inside the song.
But somehow, the photo alone doesn’t depict anything. It needs something to reinforce, to make the picture looks more eclectic than it supposed to be. It requires words and sentences and phrases so it doesn’t look static and dead like gazing Empire State Building frozen up in a monochromatic picture, it just there and left unspoken. What is the significance of the photo, no one could tell.
Like this picture of Azlan, he left me clueless for hours. I was just there on my chair thinking of what I should tell about this well-built young man, how should I describe him, how should I illustrate without sounding so affectionate was so hard. It was like pretending to be deliriously clever but somehow you couldn’t because your head was empty you talked crap.
We had a little moment to be reminisced. In fact, if I die or he does, one of us will not even notice the lost. We didn’t even have time to dig each other’s business but as little time we had spent together, as how sad the memories of us didn’t even coexist with my existence, I knew him well. From the surface, if not deep inside. How on earth would you know someone’s heart when you yourself can’t even tell who you really are?
It doesn’t make sense, does it?
What does make sense? He is brilliant and also one of my models in my petite tiny modeling agency. Does he make the cut to be a model, yes I would say from certain angles. From certain hair cuts and from some facial expressions. Yes I know a model should be versatile, but of course he could be versatile if we, as photographers know how to make him looks versatile. Now can I say that photographers are just like conductors with long wood stick in a giant orchestra?
This entry is dedicated to him. Happy 23rd birthday. May your life will be filled with lustrous joy and happiness, and safe from any harm that might encounter. My prayer is strolling by your side.
Regards,
Mohamad Saifol bin Aaisa

Because Those Leaves Were Falling
|
|
"I've been thinking of making a living over here. Never wanting to go home anymore"
"What good does it make when you sip your coffee alone while your family grieves over your non-existence?"
"I am ditching away. I am super confident on my thought"
"Your abah is dying. Go home and kiss him on his cheek. Smear some sympathy"
"I don't care. This is my home now"

The Contrast

The Contrast
Sometimes it is so funny to think that our life is separated by just one thin line. Between living - breathing the air of a fresh cut grass on the lawn, or lying on bed, eyes closed shut with nothing in the head except an eerie flashes of images how does an afterlife will look like.
Sometimes, it is not funny at all to being knocked on our head about all these things. All the life and death talks and jargons which aren't understandable at all. Sometimes we make ourselves to believe on this thing so we could be prepared for the worst and sometimes our faith is shaken badly we almost crumbled mortifying that this will not be happened, at all.
Sometimes how hard we try to ditch and to deny this feeling out of our head, it is something that is destined to be happened, something that has been written on our book of life - before we could smell the fresh air of the green grass on the back of our lawn. It will be tormenting, it will be frightening, but how hard it would be, it is written and there will be nothing can be done except being accepting.
Sometimes, when I sit on a bench on a late Saturday afternoon, I could be flown away like how do sky and solid ground could be separated by just one thin line. The green and the blank space of white dust.
Just like how do life and death are.. Two distinguish worlds by one clear visible line. It is eerie. But that's how it is meant to be. Because sometimes, life is so lovely we don't want to know what will be happening next.

Because that ray was somber
|
|
“Sometimes I wish that I could wake up all alone early in the morning where all people still deeply drifted in their dreams just to be the only soul who could eye the magnificent gigantic sun arise from the thin line of that faraway horizon”
“Sometimes I wish that this is only a dream. I couldn’t bear the fact that I could not hold this moment any longer. This is so great. Being bathed by the breezy warm air of the sea, seeing the bluish sky with a few spot of clouds which it resembles so much like a cotton wool with lots of funny faces, listening to the serenity of the splashing waves and smiling to see those cute tiny crabs digging the hole in the sand. I wish”
“I see only you in my eyes right now. Somber and fading away”

The Last Meal
|
|
Do not ask him how he woke up on that overcast dusk, lying under the alpine tree which it's bark had peeled away he could see the trunk naked in its yellowish color. Let if suffice to say simply he was there, deep in a rock forest of the grandest building imaginable, each standing straight and tall, like the oldest trees that watched all in silent meditation.
Ed walked down the balcony. He saw the dishes he thought he would never see again. Sussex was nothing more than just a plot of fertile land with foods he puked when he stuffed inside his bloated intestine.
He wished that this never ends.

Because hating someone you love and care is so hard that it is like refusing a cup of hot cappucino not to be ended in obesity.

The Moth
|
|
“Ibu! These moths are so cute”
“Sayang, they aren’t moths dear. They are just flowers with moth look-alike petals”
“They look so much like moths. The color is magnificent! I love the bloody red and the fact that it doesn’t have any leaves”
“Flowers and moths are two different entities. They are totally incomparable. There’s only one thing that makes them equal”
“Erm? Ibu? What is it?”
“Death”
"........."
