"Sitting somewhere between ambiguity and innuendo WET looks for the sexy in the subtly strange."
Artist: Polly Brown
Project: Wet
Produced by We Folk. Limited edition print series
Polly Brown's photo essay WET examines the visceral and transgressive nature of Wetness. A story of hydration, precipitation, salivation and condensation, the images run as if stills from an unmade film. Sitting somewhere between ambiguity and innuendo WET looks for the sexy in the subtly strange.
Working between photography and film, Polly's work mainly revolves around domestic scenes and the objects of everyday life, but in this most recent series, the photographer collaborates with models as well as the stylist Katie Shaw and casting director Mollie Dendle, which has contributed to a more cinematic look that explores this theme in a unique and performative way, while also having a very playful side.
The series is accompanied by a limited edition poster set, underlines the series' cinematic feel. Printed and folded on Newsprint paper, posters can be kept as zine form or unfolded and framed as limited edition prints.
