Lens Magazine ♛ November Edition #133. Female photographers express femininity. Special Collection
This month’s edition celebrates outstanding female photographers who express femininity and empower women by sharing stories of pain, struggles, boundary-breaking, and the evolution of their feminine selves. We are pleased to present an exclusive interview with Katerina Belkina, who brings forth a soft, magical world and a fresh perspective on femininity. Fares Micue presents an ultimate message of positivism through figurative, floral, sensual portraits. Monique van Laake presents her series Faces of Femininity. Sama Alshaibi introduces her crucial project, Between Two Rivers, highlighting the cruelty of controlling women. Vicky Martin explores cultural pressures in (great) Expectations, focusing on stressful expectations placed on women in modern society. Rebecca Drolen’s Factory depicts a space where the female body is magnified as a means of defense and empowerment through physicality. Tetyana Erhart expresses her appreciation for Ukrainian beauty through traditional folk portraits. Renata Dutrée investigates women’s past traumas with her portrait project, Time Will Tell. Mahya Rastegar showcases the challenge to imposed control in her project, Staying Such A Woman. Gala Semenova uses her personal self-portrait project, And Then I Remembered, to explore nudity and connection to nature. Nilangana Banerjee shares two series—The ‘Selves’ and The Lullaby—both of which examine societal expectations and the quest for the ideal self.
Enjoy!
