Suz’s series of images presents the fabulous balloon dress worn by Messalina (soprano Aura Veruni) in the final scene of the opera. Yes – balloons!! This dress and others in the production were conceived by Céline Ricci and Marina Polakoff, and designed by Marina Polakoff. Suz had the privilege of photographing the balloon dress in studio with model Olya La after the close of the opera’s run.
This was Suz’s first foray into publication, and she is thrilled to have had her work accepted.
The January issue of MOEVIR is not yet available online; however, you can have a sneak peek on Suz’s website at:
