Annie Collinge shoots Julie Verhoeven with weird and wonderful results

Date
25 January 2013

The last time we featured the brilliant Annie Collinge on the site she took us on an extraordinary journey to meet the real-life mermaids of a Florida theme park. The New York-based Brit is back with some new work which in essence is a more straightforward proposition – a portrait project featuring the artist and illustrator Julie Verhoeven. But as you might expect, in Annie’s talented hands this project becomes a thing of weird and wonderful glory. Think dolls, foot gloves, golden hands, face paints and what look like two boob-shaped sponges. It’s bonkers, barmy and brilliant. Oh and how about an excellent Ali-G inspired title to round things off? The project’s called Me, Julie. Simply splendid.
