My Latest Vogue Column Article Published with Photographer Heather Evans-Smith
I am so pleased to see my latest article for my column at Vogue has just been published. This time I interviewed the stunningly talented photographer Heather Evans-Smith. “Inspired by the deep emotional qualities of photographers Francesca Woodman and Sally Mann; their influence seeps into the soul of her images. Unlike Woodmann, who preferred to work in old buildings, where the cracked plaster and grimy floorboards lent the pictures a creepy Gothic sensibility; Evans-Smith unearths her beautiful home as studio and setting for her fantastical shoots. In presenting her ingenuity to us, her photographs remind us of our own capacity to dream and in some cases, recall”. Read more here.
