I have experimented with the editing of images, turning them black and white and then trying to colourise them again digitally in hopes of making the images appear more dated. As the character is largely inspired by the representation of women in Golden Age films (from around 1950-1970) and follows a similar path in regards to tragic beauty, I thought this process would be fitting. Although this hair makes the image look more like it is from the 60’s, when coloured film was widely accessible, I still think this it was an interesting process experiment with and to document.
