S2 Ep6: Julia Schönstädt

Sex Power Money with Sara Pascoe

Sara talks to photographer Julia Schönstädt this week about her work in feminist adult cinema.
Hailing from Berlin, Julia Schönstädt is an award winning portrait photographer and video director. She studied Photography Design at Berlin's iconic Lette Verein and earned a Master’s in Photography at the renowned Goldsmiths, University of London. With several scholarships under her belt, she is now based in London, working between Germany and the UK. Her ‘16 Bars Project', a critical examination of the penal system in Germany, was recognised and awarded by The Guardian in 2014. Subsequently, in 2015, a book was published on the same topic by German-publisher, Asso Verlag.

In her highly stylised work she always seeks out to explore the dynamic between composition and beauty in the worlds she creates.

Her work in feminist adult cinema is an expedition into this new genre, fusioning her background of music video with erotic film.
