De la Lune

This series explores female archetypes from early 20th-century cinema and photography.

These ladies reference historical icons and the contradictions they embodied but each subject possesses the strength and attitude to be an active participant in their own portrait and their agency is underscored by references to the moon, symbolizing feminine power and intuition.

Where they meet our gaze, they actively challenge us to objectify them—fully conscious of their position in the history of the muse. I hope you see your own resilience reflected in theirs.
