‘The Emptiness of Vanity’

“The Emptiness of Vanity”. March 2007.

This deserted hair stylist’s shop was glowing luminous gold on an empty street in King’s Lynn one cold March night. It drew me in, as if it wanted company. I am slightly confused whenever I look at this shot – I’m not entirely sure what emotions it brings up in me. Sadness? loneliness? despair? Not part of the 2007 Manifesto at all – I just liked it.
