Close up portrait of a male model with dark textured substance covering his face in dramatic lighting

SHADOWPLAY Magazine SOMETHING LIKE COUTURE 2026

About

This striking editorial portrait for SHADOWPLAY Magazine features model Pierrick Grégoire captured by photographer Antonino Cafiero under dramatic low-key lighting. The close-up composition focuses on a heavily textured, reflective dark substance coating the subject's face, creating deep shadows and high-contrast highlights. Styled by Brando Prizzon with hair by Roger Cho and makeup by Andrey Sebaoun, the image forms part of the project SOMETHING LIKE COUTURE. The dark monochromatic palette emphasizes tactile surfaces and sculptural form against a minimal background.
