    Those Girls | 2011

“Those Girls” is a collaboration between Jan Durina and his close friend and artist Maria Cukor. Photographic series inspired by the life and death of eight female murderers and their victims. Me and Maria were fascinated by the phenomenon of murders committed by these women and were moved by their stories so much that we felt the need to relive them and to come to an understanding.
