For almost 25 years I work with skins. I mould and give shape to my creations by using the most natural 'shapeholder' we know. The test of time will change it. 

It will hold spots, wrinkles, stories, but most importantly: more depth. In life the process is the same. Every 'scratch' we catch whether it is our soul or literally our skin 

carrying it. We all shape our values and depth by simply living. That is why we choose not to do any retouching in our photoshoots, as every irregularity has its meaning.

 This is what makes us human and can never be replaced by any artificial intelligence. It beholds our sovereignty.
