Maull & Co. (London) Portrait of a woman partially obscured by a drape is my inspiration for this next series of work. Photographs of this type (carte de vistie) were much time used visiting cards otherwise known as calling cards, a wallet like size print (2x3in), that would be given to friends and family. This particular image is one that i found interesting, due to the fact that the woman in the image is faceless. I want to take the concept and turn it into a narrative playing off the idea of a woman being insecure about her body image yet her signification other wants her to to flaunt her body to them. This series being made up of 3-4 images titled "she don't know shes beautiful". That push and pull of a womans insecurities and the way her significant other views her. The idea that original source images was original produce to give to out to many persons in contrast to the series that i produce would typically be something just between a woman and her significant other. I want this images to be shy and seductive produced in black and white with a softer focus and wrapped lighting in order to create a seductive, soft, elegant feel to the overall images.
