Jordan Harvey | Girl Pictures by Justine Kurland / Video Essay by Jordan Harvey @JordanHarveybooks | Uploaded February 2021 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
Justine Kurland's Girl Pictures photo series chronicles teenage girls as runaways, rebelling in a sort of utopic sisterhood. It has been really inspiring to me of late, and in this video I explore why that is while talking about the context of how the images got made.
