Red Hector - The Ice Maiden(s)

 


The series called The Ice Maiden is an homage to fashion photography which has been a huge inspiration on my visual style over the years as a photographer. Great quantities of money used to be spent on the best locations and concepts and top photographers. As a result fashion magazines became  snapshots in time that showcase commercial art, design, graphics and fine art.


The title is also a reference to the Prefab Sprout song "The Ice Maiden" which in turn is rumored to be a reference to the blond singer in ABBA. Perhaps the appreciation of such remote detached unattainable beauty is also suggested.
