“Le Weekend”
“I have for the longest time wanted to make a series about 1970s Californian girls, as a response towards the photo albums of music festivals and Laurel Canyon artists. The chic and casual photos of the Rolling Stones in their house, Jimi Hendrix playing pool, Peggy Lipton in Laurel Canyon and Marianne Faithfull in “The Girl on a Motorcycle”…these retro images inspired me to pick up my camera and take my first batch of photos, and they were so different from the mainstream photographs that I’ve seen.”
