   [](#)[](#) The Unknown Room 
 by Wendy Bevan Taking inspiration from the Magic Theatre of Hermann Hesse’s seminal novel Steppenwolf—in which the protagonist discovers and kills his female doppelgänger—British artist Wendy Bevan creates a Kenneth Anger-esque netherworld of washed-out, faded glamour. At the center of the work is an exploration of androgyny and the notion of the faux queen; the model a projection of the artist’s own desire to step through a glass into a mystifying, genderless arena of refracted light and infinite possibility. _Photographer_: Wendy Bevan for ellisonlee.com. _Stylist_: Sam Willoughby. _Model_: Rebecca S for Models1.co.uk. _Hair_: Robin Pawloski for dwmanagement.co.uk. _Makeup_: Carol Brown for miltonagency.com. _Set Design_: Petra Storrs at PetraStorrs.com. _Photography Assistant:_ Sir Archibald Scott and Ithaka Roddam. _Location_: RGBPhotographic.com, London.
