THE ISLAND

T H E *I S L A N D (February - 2015)

Serie of beauties addresses the concept of purity by means of photographic minimalism in synergy with handmade collage through the use of symbolic elements from nature to evoke surreal "human landscapes". The woman is the island.
For this personal project I made the photographs at home and after altering them manually through the technique of handmade collage. Again, I explore and seek beauty through the symbiosis between the female figure and elements of the natural environment to find new ways of conceptualizing the aesthetic expressions with the deconstruction of the human body.
