Dorthe Alstrup

Are these photos by Dorthe Alstrup not the most beautiful images you've ever seen?! I ran across them on 20X200, an affordable online super-gallery run by Jen Bekman. Jen best described Ms. Alstrup's series in a conversation with a friend published in her newsletter:

DeardorffI love when photographer fills space with objects.
JenI think they're really beautiful and they remind me of a lot of things.
DeardorffThey are.
JenThe balloons look like champagne to me, and you know how I love champagne.
DeardorffThey remind me of overwhelming childhood memories. Like looking at your past but with filters.
JenYes, like being a kid at grownup parties, even though balloons are kid partyish. i was thinking about falling asleep in someone's guest room on top of a pile of coats.
Deardorfffur coats, mmmmmmmm

Though I’ve never fallen asleep on a pile of fur coats, I imagine the experience to be just as lovely as these photos :)
