Curriculum Vitae

Nicola Kuperus resides in the city of Detroit and is half of the band Adult. with her husband Adam Lee Miller. She’s been taking photos since the age of 8, but back then it was mainly photos of her hamsters with a Polaroid camera. She has a much nicer camera now, and no hamsters. Most of her photographs are monochromatic, cropped in an awkward way, leaving the model’s head out of the frame. By doing this, she leaves two stories in the viewers mind: one with a happy ending and one with an unfortunate ending. It’s up to her audience to decide. Because of her warped sense of humor, she is often criticized by feminists for being misogynistic. She merely holds a deep appreciation for horror and murder/mystery films and thinks women have better legs than men.
