Meet the Brazilian photographer whose work draws on her fashion background and questions how women are represented in today’s society.
CAROLINA MIZRAHI’S images are instantly recognisable. Retro but futuristic, surreal, and with a boldly restricted palette that coats clothes, props, hair, even skin in blocked-out colours – powder blue, mauve, turquoise and, most often, pink.
“Pink is a colour that I love” explains the 34-yearold Brazil-born photographer, who now lives and works in London. “It’s full of meaning, deeply associated with the female gender and with frivolous things. I think it’s interesting to play with this stereotype .” It’s not surprising, then, that ‘PINK’ was the title she gave her solo show last February at Bay Gallery in the Cotswolds. Later in the year came ‘Second Self’, a joint show in July at Arusha Gallery in Edinburgh with another much-lauded emerging female photographer, Juno Calypso. Then in October she exhibited at The Other Art Fair, where she sold limited-edition fine art posters and her pictures were widely used in press features about the fair.
All this took place alongside shoots throughout 2016 for Vogue Italia, Vogue Brazil, Vogue Portugal and Elle UK, as well as features in Aesthetica and Another Magazine.
