Lynn Goldsmith is a renowned photographer of actors, writers, rock stars, and other celebrities, but her most intriguing work is arguably her surreal self-portraiture. The sublime and colorful compositions presented in In the Looking Glass offer a perfect vehicle for Goldsmith s creative spirit, humor, and introspective nature. The layered scenes and clever staging echo the styles of Cindy Sherman and David LaChapelle, but Goldsmith s work features even more mischievous themes, detail, and theatrical settings that wittily explore the dichotomy of candid self-portrait and imaginative artifice.
