19th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest People
Frontier Madonna

From the photographer: I feel there is something biblical, scriptural in you poses here. I myself am most likely an atheist and not at all religious. But that doesn't stop me from seeing biblical magic шт these photos. You remind me of the Mother of God in some shots. You are a woman here who can hold the burden of the whole world in her arms. In some shots you are just a woman here. I also see temptations in some shots, what make the series very interesting, multifaceted. for the series title of Frontier: think that this word concentrates in itself the destiny of a woman, torn between the spaces in which she has to exist. The border lines run precisely through a woman, slicing her.
