In the 'Opium Garden,' photographer Mina Sarenac photographs two Eve-like garden dwellers frolicking in the flowers. The models help one another with their hygiene and smoke, while breathing in the fresh garden air.

With a glowing yellow backdrop, the models' pale skin radiates as well as the gold details that cover them. One of the models wears an [intricate body suit](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/miley-cyrus-maison-margiela) with plated gold leaves and flowers covering it. The models also have untamed brows, as they are filled in with a dark shadow for the makeup.

In one of the photographs, a model shaves the underarms of the other where [gold flowers and leaves](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/untamed-nature) grow in the replacement of body hair. The mystical models are concerned with their vanity where one model also holds a mirror glaring back at the camera in a particular shot. In 'Opium Garden' [vanity, seduction and female prowess](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mariemurs-judge-me-guilty) is seen where the garden acts as a place of lust and temptation.
