London-based documentary photographer Ophelia Wynne is showcasing a series of photographs at a pop club titled ‘The Other Club.’ Wynne’s photos are undoubtedly full of energy, with Vice Magazine proclaiming she may have “found the fountain of youth.”
Her shots focus on women – models and non-models alike – who fit a lively, girl-next-door aesthetic. Of her images, Wynne says, “Somebody said to me that it’s a beautiful social documentary, in a way. I suppose I’m trying to make everything timeless. So every image could have been taken yesterday or it could have been taken ten years ago.”
The result is a set of animated, effervescent shots of a party-filled youth culture: whether it's girls frolicking by the pool, rocking out backstage or engaging in some solo dancing.
