Visual Pleasures

Photographed by Ania Zalaszewska

Inspired by the photographer’s experience working at a strip club as a dancer. The project explores the act of constructing an illusion of identity, which unfolds on stage. For those few minutes, the audience projects their own fantasies onto the dancer, yet she maintains ultimate control over her image. Shot using the wet plate collodion technique by Ania Zalaszewska.

Beauty in the Chaos / Safire

Music | Spotlight
Bold, electrifying and raw. Safire’s latest single “Beauty in the Chaos” is more than haunting vocals, hard hitting fast drum and bass and hyper pop influences in one track. It’s an exploration of grief, ultimately showing that light can be found even in the darkest of times. A series created with Bernardo Martins, just as dark and eerie as the soundtrack.
