This image represents Amir's open relationship with Soraya and who it has helped shape him. The one small protruding plant represents Amir with Soraya because he is finally able to "grow" and reveal himself by telling her his secrets. The "Love Yourself" sign represents how Soraya allows Amir to grow to accept himself for who he truly is and loves him no matter what. The tree represents Soraya because the plant is leaning on her like Amir leans on her for support. As Amir and Soraya develop their relationship, they begin to trust each other, and Amir emerges from his environment to become a newer, reborn person.
I like how you incorporated the sign in the background into your picture! That's really interesting!
ReplyDeleteThis is a really great photo to use for your metaphor. All of the details work perfectly together, especially the love yourself sign placed right in the background.
ReplyDeleteThis photo works really well with the ideas you came up with, you could also say that the sun the plant requires to grow represents time, which Amir needed in order to forgive himself.
ReplyDeleteI love how the tree is bending over showing the love and warmth Amir feels for Soraya.
ReplyDeleteI really liked your metaphor about how the tree represents Amir leaning on Soyara. I also thought it was nice that you added the sign in the background.
ReplyDeleteI like how you incorporated the love yourself sign to your metaphor. I feel like you captured Soraya and Amir's relationship perfectly and show how they constantly support each other.
ReplyDeleteI love the sign in the background. It adds depth to the metaphor in general and includes a new, creative aspect to your picture.
ReplyDeleteI like how you used the background sign and all the possible aspects relating to the tree to make connections. You could also include how the window behind the tree is a window to the past, and is covered with blinds, representing how Amir does not care about Soraya's past, and is focused on the present.
ReplyDeleteI really like the love yourself sign as it adds on to the photo and its message. It also links well with the rest of your metaphor
ReplyDeleteI like how you incorporated two objects that may seem unrelated and connected them to the overall story. You could also point out how the ivy also relates to Assef's relationship with Amir.
