Planet Ag
Two sets of contrasting elements; technicalities, and conceptuality are represented by structural uniformity (simplistic background, silver-painted figures) and the models' non-visual attributes (emotional, intellectual, and personality traits) through different postproductions. I am exploring the delicate balance between avoiding the objectification of the unclad bodies and the celebration of the divine beauty of the human figure. The nonsexualized representation of the female form and the minimalist settings contribute to the basic tone of the storytelling about life on Planet Ag.
