Why does a 12 year old boy with a turban keep appearing in your shoots?
One should be careful what one says to a heavily-armed female. Fortunately for you, she has a senseof humor.
Androgynous characters that can ALSO cross age barriers possess unique potential to illustrate concepts in a universal, one-size-fits-all, impact, like this,

We see androgyny a lot in paintings and sculpture, usually as muses or gods, but, what’s impressive about that? A painter or sculptor can simply create reality as they wish. Oleg’s aim to capture one, as a photographer, is far more challenging, given the actual reality requirement and, as such, rarity of the model. The effort is a great expression of not only where he is reaching as an artist, but where we are listening as an audience. The two evolve together.
PS – The model is 30, and a mother of 2, so, 12 year old boy is like… an *awesome* compliment. Thank You
Good answer, April.
