| Introduction | I collect and recreate vintage men's magazines, paperbacks with illustrated covers, old photos and other ephemera and pin-up related memorabilia from the 1920’s to the late 1960’s. I am addicted to flea market shopping, I look for new additions to my collections but also for props and costumes for my photos. I do everything myself, come up with an idea, I am my own model and photographer, do my own costumes, props, hair and make-up and then I edit the images. That style of photography is still very controversial and by many is considered anti-feminist or even objectifying women. By any means I do not advocate chauvinism, sexism, violence or even smoking. But I do endorse beauty, freedom and tolerance. This is my creative expression and also a tribute to all these artists who made the world a prettier place with their art, especially the obscure and unknown ones. |
