THE FINAL GIRLS: An 80s Horror Photo Series by Mitzi Starkweather
October 1 - November 2, 2024
Harry M. Cornell Permanent Collection Gallery
THE FINAL GIRLS series is inspired by Mitzi’s love for horror movies—especially the genre-defining features of the 70s and 80s—and the way they help her ritualistically confront her fears. It is also inspired by the women she photographs in her studio every day—women who have faced real-life horrors and emerged victorious. She shares it with us now because when she creates and shares with others, it gives her hope.
