This is one of a series of photographs inspired by the Impressionist painter Berthe Morisot. When I saw an exhibit of her work a few years ago, I was struck by how she portrayed quite behind the scenes moments in women’s lives – as they cared for their children, prepared for an evening out, played a musical instrument or just sat at their dressing table. Inspired by these paintings, I’m working with models to create photographs showing private moments in women’s lives.
In this photograph, Ivory Flame is thinking about the wonderful evening she spent with the man she loves
