Francesca Woodman (April 3, 1958 – January 19, 1981) was an American photographer best known for her black and whitepictures featuring herself and female models. Many of her photographs show young women who are nude, blurred (due to movement and long exposure times), merging with their surroundings, or whose faces are obscured. Her work continues to be the subject of much critical acclaim and attention, years after she killed herself at the age of 22
Thoughts:
Incredibly beautiful and haunting images. Simplicity of the human body as well as simplicity of the still life style frame has a sad beauty to it. It's almost as if you should look away but you can't. She speaks through the body.
