"As a young girl, growing up abroad, I was not exposed to Fairy tales. These new discoveries lead to my fascination with the origins of Fairy tales. I explored the original brothers Grimm's stories and found that they have very dark and sometimes gruesome aspects, many of which were changed by Disney. I began to imagine Disney's perfect Princesses juxtaposed with real issues that were affecting women around me, such as illness, addiction and self-image issues." - Dina Goldstein.

I agree that the Princess Jasmine photo is the best. All of them are amazing, though.

That was pretty cool. The best one, without a doubt, is Princess Jasmine.

This is fantastic. I've always been irked by the way that fairy tales and Disney movies portrayed women, and this was a very refreshing project.

This is such a creative idea. I especially like the snow white with the kids and Jasmine in combat. The mix of fairy tale figures and harsh realities is perfect.
