Surrealism
“I shot it on 35mm.”
A mesmerizing crown of cascading film strips wraps around the subject's head like a dark halo, creating an unsettling fusion of Hollywood glamour and mechanical decay. The high-contrast black and white photography pulls from both classic fashion portraiture and experimental cinema, with each coil of celluloid catching light in a way that makes you question if you're looking at a still image or a moving picture. Look, if you're not planning to hang this in your pretentious indie film studio while loudly explaining to visitors how it "represents the death of analog cinema," I don't even know what you're doing with your life.
