註釋Delphine Diallo's Divine aims to change the aesthetic and narrative depicting sacred female bodies as objectified and sexualized figures. Her intention is for every woman she photographs to feel the image she makes of them is a personal gift. "I am not taking pictures, I am giving pictures," as Diallo puts it. By engaging in intimate conversations with her subjects, Delphine removes the sense of vulnerability that often comes with being photographed. Working with body painters and jewelry and mask makers, Diallo also uses traditional mythology and spiritual symbols to empower her subjects. Her portraiture is all about connection and exchange. She believes women are deep beings and connects with them on an emotional level.
