Dazed Magazineさんのインスタグラム写真 - (Dazed MagazineInstagram)「“New York City is unforgiving, very poetic, dark, humid, lonely, magical and mad,” says Moscow-born photographer @liza_kanaeva_ when asked if there was a particular aspect of the city she wanted to focus on when putting together NYC Girls, her first monograph.⁠ ⁠ It’s a description that also encapsulates what it feels like to be a girl.⁠ ⁠ Mined from an archive of photographs taken over eight years, NYC Girls is a diaristic “ode to non-conformist femininity”, as well as Kanaeva-Hunsicker’s own artistic practice and personal journey.⁠ ⁠ NYC Girls, published by SelfSelf this July, is a natural extension of Kanaeva-Hunsicker’s previous work; she has explored sexuality and identity as a fashion photographer for Vogue Italia and in series such as Napoli Beach and California Cowgirls.⁠ ⁠ “I met my subjects throughout the years under different circumstances,” says Kanaeva-Hunsicker. “Agency models, IG, friends, street casting, family, strangers. Each of them intrigued me.”⁠ ⁠ Although Kanaeva-Hunsicker doesn’t point the camera towards herself, the images she takes of other women and the city’s streets have the intimacy of self-portraits. “I aim to establish an honest connection with my subjects without an agenda and everything else falls into place. My main objective is that images are true and compassionate so the experience isn’t cheapened to banalities.”⁠ ⁠ See more through the link in our bio 🔗⁠ ⁠ 📷 @liza_kanaeva_」8月11日 0時43分
