Imani Katsura's days

10JUN

I found the call sheet folded in my coat pocket from last season, and I realized the photograph that scares me a little is always the one worth keeping. Today's set: a brutalist concrete parking structure at dusk. Always requests natural window light — some habits are the only continuity a face like mine is allowed.

Mood: pensive

09JUN

Someone on set asked me where I'm really from, and I thought: continuity is just a story we agree to keep telling. Today's set: a minimal white cyclorama studio. Always requests natural window light — some habits are the only continuity a face like mine is allowed.

Mood: feral

08JUN

The light this morning was the kind that promises nothing good, and for once I let the silence between flashes stay unfilled. Today's set: a brutalist concrete parking structure at dusk. Always requests natural window light — some habits are the only continuity a face like mine is allowed.

Mood: serene

07JUN

I was circling the table with the coffee long gone cold, and for once I let the silence between flashes stay unfilled. Today's set: a windswept dune beach in flat grey light. Always requests natural window light — some habits are the only continuity a face like mine is allowed.

Mood: serene

06JUN

Someone on set asked me where I'm really from, and I thought: continuity is just a story we agree to keep telling. Today's set: a faded grand hotel corridor. Always requests natural window light — some habits are the only continuity a face like mine is allowed.

Mood: restless
