These stunning pictures by Tamar Levine portray a darker, brooding side of domestic life that's a polar opposite of a 1950s family sitcom.
Entitled 'Little Boxes,' the series by Tamar Levine captures a chilling, emotionless mother who pays little attention to her child. The dark settings that have a stalker-like quality further heightens the isolation and depression of Levine's model. The photographer chose the 1960s retro theme specifically to showcase the housewife at a time when domesticity was much more dominant.
