“Born in New York City and currently based in London, fashion photographer Valerie Phillips has gained success through work appearing on album covers and in advertisements for well-known commercial clients. She has also published several books, each documenting the life of a different girl. Here she steps into the realm of a leggy blonde teenager, portraying her in an intimately candid style. The casual series of youthful snapshots framed by kitschy floral wallpapers draws the viewer into ‘a suburban world of alien girls rubbing sleep from their eyes, wandering the rooms, parks, and spaces they call home, wearing ’80s swimwear with no pool in sight.’”
