Erased reactions annulled facial expressions, in a mix of calm and stir the marks of a life history are suppressed of these faces. Without pretending anymore, without revealing anything more it remains only a silent suggestion in a structure, a pose or attitude. Sometimes, within this blurred perception arises an uncertain feeling of proximity and recognition.
All the main elements structuring individuality are replaced by new registers to be applied in a new representation. They are engraved vectors in the skin as if tattooed, delineated in such a subtlety and graciousness that reinvents and poetically contaminates each personality.
Identities are thus removed to these characters. They are represented with new masks executed as adornments in an intervention that categorizes each individual, each face as a creative support.
The result produces a conflicting sensation of queerness with a touch of charm, conferring a new dimension to the portrait.
