I had the idea for this lightpainting piece while I was watching a report about a girl who has been abused. I was thinking about this topic quite some time afterwards and came to the decision to express what I am thinking (and feeling) in this picture.


About the technique. The picture has been slightly modified. I removed some specks on the petals with the copy-stamp and changed the light/dark balance to make the glow from inside stand out more. No real blood was used but a replacement.


Edit: Thanks to IT-Hammar [link] for telling me to correct my screen settings. Sorry for any inconvenience caused by the blue border. Has been removed and background is black as intended.

Edit: Changed resolution and file size to suit printing better. Also changed the frame to simple white.

Please do also note that this is not about victims or the process of rape. This picture deals purely with the concept of Violation. If you are in fact a victim and want to use it in your art, then feel free to do so.

The symbolism in this evokes my emotion in a strong way.
