The Limited Space' series is built around the idea of a figure that has outgrown its space. Through exaggerated proportions and sculptural silhouettes, the body appears too large for the environment that continues to constrain it. Architectural elements and imposed barriers function as abstract limits, pressing against the figure and revealing tension through scale, weight, and posture rather than narrative.
The body is a shifting landscape transformed by surfaces and sensations. Each look captures a different tactile world: the heat of blood, the cool weight of metal, the yielding drift of water. The result is a sculptural study of how the elements carve, shield, and release the self. The materials we embody become the emotions we carry, and the body becomes a materialised exhibition of our emotions, from the pulse of Blood to the discipline of Metal to the surrender of Water.
The visual narrative of the exhibition is composed of eleven internationally renowned photographers: Bruce Weber, James Mollison, David Drebin, Marco Glaviano, Stefano Babic, Richard Phibbs, Branislav Simoncik, Carlo Miari Fulcis, Rosi Di Stefano, and Riccardo Vimercati. Their artworks formed the aesthetic core of "Family Grammar," creating a collective portrait that traverses the imagery of Blauer like the notes of a shared score.
We delve into surrealism to tell the story of a young man grappling with the freedom of his identity and social acceptance. His dreams become a dreamlike atmosphere, offering him an escape from daily oppression. Within this dream world, he encounters a recurring nightmare: the moon creature, a being that embodies everything he wishes to be in real life-free, authentic, and fearless.
Tyler Mitchell, the thirty-year-old photography phenom, has enjoyed a rocket-fuelled rise in the fashion and art worlds since graduating from New York University's Tisch School of the Arts less than a decade ago. In 2018, he became the first Black photographer to shoot a cover for Vogue, capturing Beyonc é in a frilly white prairie dress with an elaborate headpiece that simultaneously recalled Giuseppe Arcimboldo's fantastical paintings, Frida Kahlo's elaborate flower crowns, and Carmen Miranda's fruit-basket hats.
Two boys stand before the camera, their presence quiet yet full of meaning. The photographs, and the vision behind them, were shaped by Shin Jeong Hoon, whose eye for subtle emotions guided every frame. Behind the scenes, Natsumi Allgower brought the look to life, shaping hair and makeup with a gentle precision that allowed the boys' true selves to shine through.
CLEAN KITSCH is a photographic editorial that expands upon the tension between kitsch aesthetics and the traditional domestic environment, using this contrast as a lens through which to explore the representation of women within familiar household settings. The project intentionally embraces the language of kitsch, its excess, its exaggeration, and its deliberate theatricality to reveal how these visual strategies can be reinterpreted as critical tools rather than mere decorative choices.
Unreal Woman refers to women who have undergone numerous, often excessive cosmetic surgeries, completely changing their identity and appearance and rendering them unrecognisable. This phenomenon of abuse of surgery and cosmetic medicine mainly affects women, and can be found in large numbers in the fashion, beauty, and lifestyle influencer categories. Wanting to embrace the beauty standards of Instagram at a given moment, they do not hesitate to go under the knife for results that are often irreversible.
In this project, I delve into two opposing ends of the beauty spectrum.On one side lies nature raw, untamed, a form of beauty that refuses to conform to any standards, existing freely on its own terms.On the other hand, conventional beauty polished, retouched, and meticulously curated, embodying perfection as we've come to define it.Both are valid, both are compelling yet can they truly coexist within a single creative vision?
Diagnosis transforms the clinical aesthetics rooted in Anastasiia Gerasymova's upbringing within a family of doctors into sculptural fashion. Anastasiia Gerasymova is a Ukrainian stylist and sculptural artist based in London, whose work often bridges fashion, art, and personal narrative. Drawing from the visual language of the medical world, precision, sterility, and the tension between care and control, the editorial reinterprets these references through styling and form.
"As an art director and photographer, I'm always interested in the push and pull between elegance and disruptions. When working with fashion, I feel like this balance gets very sensitive, and therefore very fun", Elvin explains.
Since 1964, the Pirelli Calendar - referred to and trademarked simply as 'The Cal' - has provided preeminent photographers the opportunity of realising big-budget ideas with some of the world's most celebrated faces. The not-for-sale calendar is also perceived as a sort of litmus test for contemporary sensibilities, with projects over the last decade eschewing the sexualised imagery of the 80s and 90s in favour of high-concept fashion set pieces.
Screenshot Lena Capillas work blends melancholia and mystery, evolving between documentary and fashion photography. Through both photography and film, she explores the boundary between dreams and reality, examining how emotions and the subconscious shape our perception of time. Her characters are often caught between memories and present existence. In her photography, she treats subjects as more than models, fostering a collaborative process akin to directing actors in cinema.
Two inseparable twins embody the strength of a bond that transcends the visible, a connection that cannot be explained but simply exists in every glance and gesture. This project was born from the desire to narrate indissolubility through fashion, weaving together bodies, identity, and territory. Sicily becomes the beating heart of this story: a land of contrasts, of light, and of deep roots.

"David has always used photography as a seductive device, a sublimation of his desire. His pictures of people feel tactile because one senses his desire to touch, but never in an aggressive or insistent way. This book is a love sonnet to American style and the Boy as icon."
