Book of the week: Bordello by Vee Speers

Vee Speers is an Australian artist and photographer living in Paris. Bordello is pure seduction, the images are inspired by the 1920′s. Shot in French bordellos, perfectly orchestrated and artistically adapted, the photographs take the viewer into the world of temptation.

‘The world of bordellos seen by Vee Speers is a kind of in between zone of life and sex with a touch of sad misery and darkness. There is no daylight, there is no air, there is no home. The models become strange mermaids swimming in the dark water at the shore of an obscure, gloomy, closed world’ Karl Lagerfeld, 2006.
