Photo taken in 2018 at Bergdorf Goodman 5th Avenue, New York.
At the heart of the festive holiday window’s universe stands the superbly-styled mannequin, a silent muse that breathes life into the experience. Each point of view, each camera angle, each lighting spot, every ray of sunlight on the opposite buildings reflected, each fold of fabric, every carefully chosen accessory, and the whimsical yet meticulous arrangement of elements in this 3D canvas contribute to the allure of my imagery. The mannequin, a symbol of timeless elegance and sartorial grace, becomes the protagonist in a visual tale where fashion transcends mere aesthetics, evolving into a language that communicates emotions and narratives.
The enchanting layers within my imagery materialize as reflections are observed, cascading onto invisible barriers over the staged scenes. These reflections give rise to new compositions, crafting new realities that only my eye and the keen gaze of my camera are poised to capture. The resulting tapestry is a symphony of multi-layered effects, beckoning viewers into realms of curiosity and delight, bringing them along a shared voyage of imagination.
Each frame encapsulates personal mysteries of fleeting co-existences—moments where the real mixes with the staged, seamlessly blending into splendid realms of imagination. The instance manifests into single shot images and pristine prints, untouched by the hand of retouching or manipulation, capturing the pure, unparalleled magic of the moment in a universe where a highly styled mannequin reigns as the silent sovereign of style and substance.
The effect of changing light plays off the brushed aluminium print creating further mystery and appreciation of the fleeting moment.Signed, titled, dated and numbered on back.

We see a fabulously styled stage complete with a mannequin and an imaginative taxi prop and the trunks-shrouded Louis Vuitton building reflecting into the scene from across the avenue.For me this window scene with the graceful, sublimely dressed “robot” mannequin strongly conjures up the sensitive and observant companion robot in Kazuo Ishiguro’s novel “Klara and the Sun”. The touching story is narrated by the solar-powered Klara who after catching the eye of her teenage customer in a store window where she was showcased, was happily purchased. The highly observant Klara lives with the family in a rapidly changing modern world and helps and saves her ailing human teenager with empathy and with the nourishment of the sun’s light.

Spirits of Venice
Add to cartVenice, a realm of timeless beauty and enigma, plays host to both eager and unsuspecting masses of tourists. The spirits concealed behind the iconic white masks engage in an ethereal dialogue, unaffected by the passers-by who glimpse into their mysterious world. What secrets do they share? What cryptic messages do they convey? The masked entities, though catching the gaze of observers, remain indifferent to the ceaseless flow of tourists, even those who pause to marvel at the intricate masks. Their connection with the mundane outside world seems tenuous, as if they exist in a realm beyond ordinary perception.
All elements of the 3D canvas, the reflections of the real onto the staged along with the imagined contribute to the captivating essence of my visual narrative. The masks within this window become the protagonists of a silent tale, gradually unfolding a language of emotions and stories.
The layers of my imagery are a result of the reflections of the outside world mixed with glimpses of sky, that land via an invisible barrier onto the inside scene, resulting in a new composition and construction of an alternate reality that only my discerning eye and lens of my camera is poised to capture. The resulting tapestry is a symphony of multi-layered effects, an unparalleled magic of the moment inviting viewers into realms of curiosity and delight, guiding them on a shared journey of imagination. The final effect of moving light playing off my brushed aluminium prints creates further mystery and appreciation of the fleeting moment.
