In the Shadow of Young Girls in Flower

Model: Olivia Morgan-White
Photo, concept and edit: Photography by Ela Frączkowska

I've just read a few fragments from Proust's 'In the Shadow of Young Girls in Flower' and here are the two I agree with:

"(...) certain favourite roles are played by us so often before the public and rehearsed so carefully when we are alone that we find it easier to refer to their fictitious testimony than to that of a reality which we have almost entirely forgotten."

and

"If we are to make reality endurable, we must all nourish a fantasy or two.".



I think that this is a perfect song to connect the quotes (especially the second one) with my model's facial expression. Goodnight.
