Charis Wilson, série Pictures for Charis, par Kelli Connell
This photograph appears to show an intimate encounter between two women. In fact, Kelli Connell has depicted the same model twice, digitally combining several photographs into one image. For her decade-long project “Double Life,” Connell meticulously studied portrait techniques of documentary photography and then created her own imagined scenes that question the nature of human relationships and individual identity. See her work in "Another Way of Telling: Women Photographers from the Collection."
