The blurb says that Bunny is a series of images by Polly Borland that create a portrait of an extremely tall girl called Gwen. Combining surrealism with a forensic study of the subject’s femininity, Borland has successfully borrowed from the surrealist ideas of Claude Cahun, Hans Bellmer and Man Ray to produce an intimate, yet haunting photographic narrative.
