Guerrilla Model: Elle Muliarchyk

Amanda on fashion.psfk reports on a model that goes from store to store and photographs herself in poses in the dressing rooms. What’s more is that Elle Muliarchyk brings her own props! The photo above shows a 300 year old mirror she dragged to the YSL store via the Tube! Amanda says:

The changing rooms are the backdrops for her photographs, where stories are created either using the objects already present or through the addition of props that Elle brings with her- the most bizarre including a 300-year-old mirror, Krispy Kreme doughnuts, and a 6ft cuddly panda.

Starting as a way to practise posing for shoots, the photographs quickly become a vent for the frustration she felt at the lack of creative expression available to her- “I’m a model. I’ve always been forced to wear things. Taking pictures of myself is revenge on a situation where everyone takes control of me.”
