Shadows in Paradise is a collection of works by Canadian photographer Marianna Laursen. Laursen, who began her career as a fashion model, has garnered attention for her photographs that explore the inner workings of women and their social roles. This book, conceived as a sequel to her previous work, Snow and Rose & Other Tales, depicts women drifting between solitude and solidarity, memory and reverie. Using a mix of vintage-toned black-and-white and soft colors, the book portrays women gathering in suburban homes and forests in a dreamlike, sometimes cinematic, tension-filled portrait. The landscape here seems utopian, yet also a closed-off paradise where anxiety and desire intersect. Laursen's "female gaze" is a quiet rebellion against the male-dominated history of photography, delicately capturing the beauty of beings living between dream and reality.
