Influenced by old advertising I found of a production of Romeo and Juliet performed by Margot Fonteyn and Nureyev back in 1965. Margot Fonteyn for me represented an incredibly strong woman both physically and mentally and yet there was a real frailty and vulnerability in her demeanor. The silhouette you see represents that vulnerability, the Poppies in her tutu her strength. This image was created from multi photographs that I have taken of poppies and female silhouettes the photographs are then layered to create multi, ever revealing imagery and story telling.
