HESTER

In HESTER, my photographs from 2008 to 2018 are bundled together. HESTER is the title of one of the photographs featured and originally taken from a character in the novel, A Prayer for Owen Meany, by John Irving. I am drawn to this particular fictional female, Hester, because of her extreme nature; she is an extrovert, aggressive and chaotic, yet also sensitive, loving and charming. With a lot of affection, I could call all the women in my photographs ‘Hester’.
