At Least One Egg (Avallon) 2016

Finnish photographer Elina Brotherus is known for her self-portraits that explore themes of identity, self-representation, and the female experience. In "At Least One Egg (Avallon)" from 2016, Brotherus, with a single egg perched precariously atop her head, stands in a lush forest setting, surrounded by cascading purple wisteria blossoms. This image exemplifies Brotherus's signature style of combining her personal experience with a surrealist sensibility. The delicate balance of the egg and the floral backdrop creates a visually captivating and conceptually rich composition, drawing the viewer into the artist's introspective world.
