Maxime de Bruin's series of photographs shows the creative process composer Franki Dodwell went through while writing her first operetta. The photographer followed Franki from early in the morning behind the keys in her apartment until late at night.

Maxime drew inspiration from the play UBU ROI, on which Franki's operetta is based. Hidden symbols such as crowns and ghosts and notes from Franki's sheet music were incorporated into the images to emphasize the blurring of worlds and the impact of these decisions on her work.

The series is on view in the lobby of Amare through April 22.
