In 2006 I was approached by Lorna Siegel, a London Based Photographer. Her ideas for a Victorian themed circus were presented to me and the task of creating costumes for 21+ models began.
The brief was ".....a Victorian themed circus based around the traditional characters that were present at the turn of the century ei The Strongman, The Bearded lady, The Tattooed man ect...."
Below are the photographs of the project that I completed. They were shown as a exhibition of work at the Portobello Gold Gallery in London later in the year.
The future for this series of work will hopefully be a book.
