A horned skull replaces the face and transforms the figure into a hybrid presence, suspended between the human and the mythological. The leather jacket, the bare skin, and the tattooed body anchor the subject in the present, while the mask evokes an ancient, almost ritualistic imagery.
The work explores duality: strength and vulnerability, instinct and… identity, protection and exposure. By concealing the face, the portrait defies immediate interpretation and invites projection. The viewer no longer encounters a person, but an archetype.
Capricorn becomes less an astrological sign than an inner state, a tension between control and wildness, structure and impulse. The body remains human, but the mind belongs to another world. In this liminal space, identity reveals itself as a multifaceted construct, a protective armor and a silent confession.

My work is an exploration of intimacy, where words fade away to give way to feeling. Deeply influenced by the power of chiaroscuro and the legacy of masters such as Caravaggio, I seek the dramatic tension between shadow and light. For me, shadow is not a void, but a refuge where our deepest truths lie hidden.
I focus on humanity, not in its perfection, but in its vulnerability. My works explore our flaws and wounds, those fragilities we often try to hide. Through stark contrasts, I pay homage to the beauty of our imperfections: each shadow is a respected modesty, each burst of light a resilience.
Being of a reserved temperament, I see the act of photographing as a silent dialogue. My art is an invitation to accept the shadow side that dwells within us, for it is precisely there that light is most revealing.
