An aesthetic journey between matter and code. Through a series of living tableaux, “Raw Beauty” explores the transformation of female beauty and questions the ways in which beauty is represented through a hypnotic transition: from canvas to skin, from skin to algorithm, questioning how beauty is created, transformed, and projected today.
Bodies and faces oscillate between flesh and oil, between life and representation, where flesh meets the sacred. Through the portrait of three muses, the camera ventures onto bare, glistening skin, filmed like landscapes in classical paintings.
In this chiaroscuro, the boundary becomes blurred: the grain of the skin becomes the texture of oil, and the face a pictorial surface in motion.
Then, a metamorphosis takes place. Organic flesh shifts into the digital realm. These figures mutate into a more spectral and digital existence.
Before our eyes, faces mutate into reconstructed surfaces, giving rise to a hybrid and synthetic beauty. The film thus becomes a place of fluid circulation where beauty is transformed, from skin to data.
A work that questions the way our gaze sculpts the feminine, between artistic heritage and algorithmic revolution: what remains of life in the mirror of our technologies?
