Who are you?
Are you the face you show in front of others?
Are you the one in the photo or are you acting for the photo?
Have you created a character to give a face that protects you?
Do you wear the clothes or do you wear them?
Is it possible to free ourselves from complexes and insecurities completely?
Every day when we leave home we put on our best face, our best self, a work of art. We look in the mirror, we dress, we paint... Many of us have created a character that we want to interact with the world, to be different from us and to make us live a thousand lives in one.
In a time when there is non-stop talk about being natural and letting ourselves go, we demand grooming yourself, interpreting the clothes you wear and making each piece your own. We claim to act, to be shy one day and not be ashamed the next, to be insecure and secure, to be the contradiction and let it be seen, let it be felt, that we take advantage of not being perfect and that we play with it.
The idea of the heads tells that story, tuning ourselves to the max and creating our fun and liberating character. We can confirm that we have never posed more comfortable in a photo session, that it shows, and that it makes us more ourselves than ever.
