sensual fruit

Postby skylark on Sun May 22, 2005 12:41 am

Hi, I'm doing a uni photographic assignment in which i'm intending to photograph women with fruit. innocent but sensual.

Just wondering if anybody knows of any photographers who have done something similar that i could be guided by or a good place to start searching.

Many thanks :)

Try Simryn Gill... probably not exactly what you want, but that's only person I can think of off-hand right now.

I'll try and think of some others later on.

Thanks for that Nnnnsic. The pix are interesting, i like the anonymity aspect which i will be incorporating into my own work. research is hard on this subject as any web search just seems to come up with a whole bunch of porn sites...not exactly the look i'm going for!

maybe the fruit thing is too specific. i guess it could just be anoymous fully-clothed sensual females, with a touch of the burlesque. a key influence thus far is Guy Bourdin.

Skylark - Juicy Lucy made an album back in 1970 that portrayed a naked woman laying on a table covered in fruit (both her and the table) - try this site for the pic (Juicy Lucy - The Anthology)

That's great, thanks Chris.
