SHOWstudio: Dark Annie “Clown”
Transforming Estonian übermodel Carmen Kass into a sinister high-fashion harlequin through photograph and moving image alike, a surreal and dreamlike vision takes a nightmareish twist at the hands of Nick Knight and Panos Yiapanis in this representation of Autumn/Winter 2009-2010 fashion. Taken from Jack The Ripper’s third victim, the title Dark Annie sets the tone for this haunting and foreboding film, in which cloudy shadows and barely-glimpsed reflections at the periphery of one’s vision are not as benign as we may wish.
