Alex Prager is an American art photographer and filmmaker who lives and works in Los Angeles. Her photographs primarily use staged sets and models to create "film-like" images that invite a myriad references, not only to the history of Hollywood and photography, but also the cinematic image in art contexts. The subjects of her works, exaggerated and costumed, some times "hyper-real" speak to the ambiguity of seduction and spectacle.
The series that I'm sharing below is her 2013 Face in The Crowd, it's an inspiring series that featured a lot of faces in different expression, activity, emotion and thoughts.
I really love the way she set up her photos. There's a glamorous feel in all the costumes, make up and the setting in location, the backdrop then the props and surrounding. Maybe it's a reflection on your own as everyone will have different faces to look at when they first glance on the photos.
What I love to look at her photos is because it's so much stories behind. Everyone in the photo has a different background and I can just stare at one photo for 10 minutes to finally look at everyone with all the details.
