Photographer 12 | Francesca Woodman

Though Woodman committed suicide in her 22, her work continues to be the subject of attention in the world of contemporary art. She was best known for her black and white photographs featuring herself and some nude female models. She likes to use long exposure to have blurred effects and softness of focus in her work. She incorporates some surrealist motifs such as mirrors, gloves, birds and bowls. Some of the her photographs with disappearing figures were said to have reflected her desire to disappear in the world.
