Transforming the streets of New Orleans, New York, and Los Angeles into lush backdrops for her wonderfully surreal tableaus, Bobb-Willis makes unforgettable images that expand the genres of fashion and art photography. “I love the idea of seeing Black people represented in an abstract way,” Bobb-Willis says. “It’s important to me to continue to reject the notion that Black expression is limited—or limiting.” With a conversation between Bobb-Willis and a dynamic range of artists, stylists, and creatives who speak about keeping their “inner kid” alive, this book captures a definitive young artist’s unconventional worldbuilding.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"pXKBF kN7xw\" id=\"b3j3y7596\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"pXKBF kN7xw\" id=\"w5kc07597\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eArielle Bobb-Willis \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e(born in New York, 1994) has published her photography in the \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNew Yorker\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan\u003eI-D\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan\u003eW Magazine\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e,\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBritish Journal of Photography\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan\u003eL’uomo Vogue\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, New York magazine’s \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Cut\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, and the \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMagazine\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e.
