ナショナルジオグラフィックさんのインスタグラム写真 - (ナショナルジオグラフィックInstagram)「Photo by @isadorakosofsky At an assisted living facility in Los Angeles, Bianca prepares to move into a new unit on a lower floor due to vertigo. Born in Chicago, Bianca was named Blanche but changed her name for her flamenco dance career. After 20 years of dance, she became a costume seamstress. Bianca has been estranged from her daughter for 15 years and has no other family. After she was diagnosed with early-stage dementia in 2008, she moved into a retirement community. I have been photographing Bianca for years, spending hours on her couch, having long discussions and watching her dance in a blue nightgown to Billie Holiday. When I was 13, Bianca approached me at a coffee shop and asked me, “Honey, what do you want to do with your life?” I replied, “I want to be a documentary photographer.” She responded, “Oh good. You will never be lonely." My 13-year photographic series on Bianca is not only a document of her life but an intergenerational conversation about change, loss, remoteness, and womanhood.
