Cheek

This project captures the enigmatic allure of London’s burlesque party scene. Appropriating the stylistic cues of 1920’s Berlin, it sets up an atmosphere of theatrical secrecy. Games of scale evoke a feeling of playful uncertainty. Morality is suspended in the flickering shadows, and the viewer is drawn magnetically
into the frame.   

The series was commissioned by Die Freche Muse; an east-end party that housed a legendary subculture within a lair of antique furniture and peeling wallpaper.
