In these book covers made for classical fairy tales I explore the female perspective of the world. When telling these stories, the society casts its gaze onto the female protagonists and deprives them of their own identities. Here I aimed to restore their identities by portraying the main characters as they see themselves—alone in a world of darkness and menace.
