Womanizer

Capozzi has spent the past decade shaping an attitude in fashion and contemporary portraiture of women. Her images unbind the female form from tradition and honor its erotic power. Her lawless compositions interlace celebrity, the mundane, the absurd, and the surreal. There is an erotic interplay between photographer and subject, with both sides playfully exchanging power. Vibrant photographs of contemporary female icons, including Kim Kardashian, Miley Cyrus, Bella Hadid, Pam Anderson, Dua Lipa, Chloë Sevigny, and Selena Gomez, along with less familiar faces from Capozzi’s New York circle of friends and muses, celebrate a feminine point of view and disrupt the legacy of the female form being depicted for the male gaze. Capozzi’s sophisticated camerawork weaves high fashion with saturated narratives, pop culture, her own handmade garments, and props. The images are enticing, glamorous, and unexpected.
