Juno Calypso
Posted by Fabio 23 September 2013
23-year-old London born photographer Juno Calypso recently began working with self-portraiture, which led to the creation of a character named Joyce.
Within elaborately staged large format photographs and videos I draw upon personal experience to perform critical studies into modern rituals of beauty and seduction. We find Joyce alone, consumed by artifice – trapped inside pastel-coloured encounters with beauty masks, cream cakes and polyester negligee; her glazed appearance acting as a mirror to the exhaustion felt whilst bearing the dead weight of constructed femininity._Juno Calypso
