CLAIR OBSCUR

This series explores the term «photography» - revealing with light - associated with chiaroscuro. The idea is to work with contemporary photography, following in the footsteps of Renaissance painters and their ancient, dark paintings, similar to candlelit compositions. My aim is to highlight the diversity of bodies and the artistic heritage of the past. By showcasing seven women and their morphologies, each image becomes a celebration of singularity, with bodies emerging from the darkness to reveal the delicacy of skin and the harmony of form. it’s an invitation to observe the evolution of beauty «standards», past or future, as well as to reflect on our acceptance of ourselves, considering that beauty is omnipresent.
