DescriptionImage of a woman with dark hair and tattoos on left leg standing outside of a movie theater wearing black jacket, miniskirt, and tall heels.Gallery LabelFor her series On Hollywood, Lise Sarfati photographed women she befriended in Los Angeles, using as her backdrops mundane street corners, parking lots and corner stores. These settings, in which the women are seen alone and in moments of pensive reflection, suggest isolation and estrangement from a city that lured them with dreams of fame and fortune but left them to face harsher realities.
