Women. Women loving women. Men loving men. Love. Art. Matriarchy. Ancient Greece Mythology.
If I had to define Camila’s art work in Romance the words I mentioned above I think they could express what I see on the album cover.
No wonder Camila’s desperate PR circus with Señorito in this case. They have created a whole “heterosexual” show so that Camila had full freedom (or everything they wanted to give her) to express what ROMANCE means to her.
And this meaning brings us to this other image of the art work of Romance
In the image we can see two different concepts but at the same time they go hand in hand with what we have known about Camila.
The first part is the part of ancient Greece and the goddesses, priestess, the matriarchy … the women.
And this image can also be very related, (next to the cover of Romance) with Lauren’s post about women and her song Burning.
Both girls have agreed to teach us that Greek mythology has to do with their music.
If we remember, in ancient Greece, same-sex couples were not unusual. It was a matriarchal age in some aspects and very patriarchal in others but I will not go deeper into that subject because it is not the most important thing in this case.
What really caught my attention in Romance’s second art work was the image of Camila holding a kind of red apple pierced by three daggers.
At least it’s what I see but it’s not the most important thing either. That image of her with that in her hand looks a lot like the representation of a tarot card called three of spades
It is a heart pierced by three swords and its meaning is not very happy that we say
(We all know who was the rose also)
Another thing that caught my attention on the cover is that the apple seems to be “bleeding” between Camila’s fingers and the other end of the apple has flowers. The image of the tarot card has a rose and in another of Camila’s works of art they also have roses
The most curious thing about this cover is that I remember posting a video of reading tarot cards about Shonmila where the girl who reads the tarot cards mentions that Camila has been involved in three relationships but that there is one of them that she cannot forget and that It’s about the past because the girl with the cards pulled out a card with three images. Right now I don’t remember if the tarot card was a three of spades or three of pentacles but it was a three and three meant THREE PEOPLE.
Three people related to Camila. Two from her past and one from her present.
Her present we already know what circus it is, her past has had a circus and a real relationship where the same girl from the tarot cards asked if Camila was engaged.
In the artwork Camila is holding the apple (the hearts, her heart) with three daggers. A lot of a coincidence, isn’t?
But the cover not only has the apple representing her heart but also butterflies flying around her and perched on her hair and body.
The butterfly is a symbol that represents it completely and that it has been doing since 2016, long before the current fucking it has and that they have wanted to link to it just because señorito has a butterfly tattoo. Idiots. (I’ll edit the post with the link when I find it)
What the butterfly means is also interesting because knowing the meaning so painful that the apple / heart has, the butterfly comes to mean rebirth, endurance, change and life.
Camila is a survivor and she has proved it by far. She has loved so much and at the same time suffered so much for love that she would not mind going through the same suffering again and again if in the end she is able to be with that special person to whom she has dedicated almost all her music.
Don’t forget folks, this is my own interpretation of the images. probably I’m wrong and Camila will explain it differently, but this is just my vision, thanks for reading.
