Artwork description:

It wasn't the first time we were shooting and we did it consciously. The shoot was before my second show for the new collection. We felt confident, prepared references, an idea, rented a studio, a light, a photographer, a complete set.
We decided to laugh at the world of gloss and took all the classic model poses and repeated them as badly as possible. We were like mannequins, wooden dolls. And in this picture, there is so much fracture from imperfection in it, without verified angles and faces. Clothes at least, the emphasis was on the body. Bodysuits to match the skin colour, model size, but even they were too big for us. The furniture rendered in silhouette is real.
The original shape, I really wanted to convey all the sophistication, but I didn't want to distract attention from the characters, and therefore the furniture has a contour and shadow, but has no colour and volume. And the black contour lines on the models' bodies only emphasise all the wooden poses, not the natural fractures of the body. All this is an allegory of the falsity of the glossy world, its beautiful outer shell and the absence of any content.
We even cast a shadow, but we have neither colour nor volume. The time when we began to lose our identity to ourselves and began to turn into a beautiful verified picture.
