Alice Hawkins, Photographer, London

Description

This striking portrait captured by photographer Alice Hawkins features a woman seated on a small upholstered chair in a domestic living room setting. She is dressed in an elaborate showgirl ensemble, complete with a large red and pink feathered headdress, a matching feathered cape-like wing structure, and sequined undergarments adorned with pearls. Standing to her left is a life-sized taxidermy tiger posed on its hind legs with one paw extended toward her. The interior features white brick walls, tiled flooring, an arched pass-through window with a plant, and a white front door with an oval glass window. Warm interior lighting casts soft shadows across the scene, creating a theatrical and surreal atmosphere.
