Prom storm

"The theme is mirroring the tumultuousness of youth with the tumultuousness of the weather.  Putting teens in a prom in a hurricane.  I've had four photo shoots so far with many, many youths, putting them in front of giant wind fans and talking them through different scenarios.  The young people are in love, terrified, flirtatious, suspicious, pissed off......"     -Kirsten Johnson

Saw Kirsten Johnson's Prom Storm painting series when I was in Toronto last and was amazed at how she captures this photographic energy in paintings.
