The main theme of the shoot is light isolation - in an empty area of shadows and refraction.

What’s interesting about this process is that the photos are shot with a practical effect achieved using a screen protector (with a privacy filter). Light bounces differently depending on the angle at which you hold up the filter in front of the camera lens. A couple of the photos were also shot twice - One in the studio, and the next through the computer screen. There I say, putting a story in a different perspective.

“Anthropology”, a stage play by Lauren Gunderson- is a gripping psychological thriller that explores AI, sisterhood, and grief.
