Friday, 18 February 2011
Bonjour butterflies! It's friday - yay!! I'm so glad for it, I need a sleep. I came across these images & wanted to share them from photographer Simon Proctor.  I found them quite haunting in the most beautiful of ways & even more so the story behind them. Please enjoy & most definitely go to Simon's blog and read further and discover even more of his work, it's most definitely amazing!! Have a great weekend.

'Last summer the friend of the international photographer Simon Procter, Rolande, an aged but still very wild paintress died. The family of Rolande agreed to open her studios one last time before all was cleared away. Simon Procter with help from his friends at Christian Dior Couture and his Paris creative team shot in this extraordinary space. The young french model Pauline Serreau was given the daunting task of embodying the dead artist. The following image,are a unique example of life, art and death interpreted through contemporary fashion photography'.

    I've seen these somewhere around. They're really beautifully taken! And a little haunting too, but of course, in an artistic kind of way. x
