Life Once Removed / Suzanes Heintz

Photographer Suzanes Heintz is a self-proclaimed spinster. As a single woman, she got fed up with the bombardment of questions about when she was going to get married. Tired of being pitied, she decided to confront this issue head on. She purchased two mannequins — one male and one female child — and the series Life Once Removed was born. Dressing up and posing with her fake family, she stages witty representations of the American Dream. Ski trips, vacations, and stereotypical romantic moments are all acted out by Heintz, and she sets the scene perfectly. These colourful images feel saturated, in both how they look and the emotional exuberance of the her expression and body language — via Beautiful/Decay Artist & Design
