Model, Actress, Photographer, Whatever

MAUREEN ZACHARKI – Expressing her unique photographic visions of her world while living with Alice in Wonderland Syndrome

Inspirations

The romanticism of the Pre-raphaelites and Victorian artists and photographers…Julia Margaret Cameron/John William Waterhouse

The surrealist Man Ray and his assistant, photographer and model, Lee Miller. Miller re-invented solarization… a technique in which black and white hues are reversed.

Former French model turned photographer… Sarah Moon’s ethereal fashion photography is more like art than just high fashion.

Anton Corbijn, Dutch rock photographer… famous for photographing Joy Division and being the creative director for Depeche Mode. I admire his gritty black and white rock-n-roll photography.

My favorite film director, Stanley Kubrick, started photographing for Look Magazine at the age of 17 in 1947. He worked there until 1950.

Since an early age… music and musicians have had a great influence on me.

-Depeche Mode

-The Smiths

-Radiohead

-Nirvana

-Sia

-Plus many others including Michael Penn, Billy Bragg, The Cure, Garbage, David Bowie, The Smashing Pumpkins and tons of others too many to mention.
