There is a certain stoically raw aesthetic that distinguishes Alexandra Valenti‘s work from other photographers. Collaborating with renaissance woman Angeliska Polacheck, Valenti provides a photographic narrative that is centered around Polacheck’s headdresses. The headdresses are worn by Kaiman Kazazian and Julia Marie.
