The photographs explore the intersection between cross-cultural readings into Eastern and Western beauty. Within the photographs, the images depict both sensuality and conservatism, via the rich, lustrous backdrop through to the carefully placed props within the images. The series allows for a visual and narrative deconstruction and reconstruction much like in a way one might view a cinematic still, illustrating tensions inherent within the images.
