I took this picture with my phone via hipstamatic magic of a postcard i found rummaging through my roommate's art work in her room. I was intrigued by it immediately, after all, how could you not be? For the longest time i convinced myself this piece was a painting and i still wanted to believe it was. I only now researched the artist and discovered Bettina's Rheims' amazing photography. Look her up, she's got some sexy stuff. The original piece is dated January 1996 in Paris. I love how the woman here has her septum pierced and considering this was done 15 years ago, the flannel shorts have not outdate themselves yet either. The english translation of the title is Why hast thou forsaken me?
