Where would they live? What would they do? Who would they actually be?"</div><div style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22.464000701904297px; margin-top: 11px; padding: 0px;">Vojackova traveled to several different countries, she says, "looking for inspiration and stories, and looking for local girls who felt a bit different or special. Influenced by the places, the cultures and the girls' real lives, I created narratives that I then staged for the tableau photographs."</div><div style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;
