Faiyaz Jafri and I powwow at Totem Gallery in New York City. A photo shoot involving modern furniture is underway.
Fashion models lounge here and there and the photographer sets up lights and screens.
We're in the way, so we duck in back, where the Holland-born, New York based artist's slick series, Pool, is hanging. I heard you used some photographs of Madonna to create Pool. There were some pictures of Madonna in the French issue of a fashion magazine. The main one was Madonna holding a dolphin and being shot from the back. The whole thing was shot outside and had that faded, fifties look to it, not completely supersaturated and bright.
