The Mistula Disciples: Edith

The road to the Mistula: Resurrection is riddled with thorns and bad puns. Joey felt she must outdo the first two editions, so she made concept sketches that are too difficult to shoot with her current set-up (a tiny but amazingly well-lit space in the garage right behind her car). So she made her sad predicament known to her friend, the photographer Edith, who, full of mercy, let Joey (ab)use her studio and several parts of her house.

There are four photography themes to the Mistula Holy Week update: Crucifixion, Death, Resurrection and Ascension. I interpreted Crucifixion in black ribbons and bondage, while Dragan and his holy doves symbolized Ascension. Death was Manx’s theme, and she was to be engulfed in darkness. Unfortunately, it was a concept too ambitious for Joey’s available space and equipment.

Enter Edith.
