In the Mood for Love
In the Mood for Love
35mm film, C-Prints
This was Vera’s first color photo project. It was made during her second year at Bard College, when she gave up the Mamiya medium-format film camera she had been given and picked up a 35mm point-and-shoot. The casualness of the point-and-shoot gave Vera the freedom to take photos both aggressively and impulsively, which resulted in this vibrant, reckless group of pictures, just like being young and in love.
One of the pictures was taken in one of the cinemas that screened the Wong Kar Wai film “In the Mood for Love” (2000) , which gave this project’sname.
