Rating: General Audiences
Tags: Pearl, horror, horror movie, portrait, Mia Goth

Creator's notes: This is a portrait of Mia Goth as Pearl in the movie Pearl during a pivotal moment of the movie where the main character’s identity is determined by others and redirects her life path. It’s a very emotional scene, and one of my favorite scenes in any film because of the raw emotion depicted.

Comments

On the surface both are in black and white, but on a deeper level both pieces tackle feminine identity and how it is often dictated through society and/or the male gaze.
