Numéro Art

Jun 2026

In the Frugal series for Numéro Art, photographer Camille Vivier orchestrates a hauntingly precise dialogue between the human form and the mechanical puppet. This editorial campaign, shaped by the masterful set design of Jade Boyeldieu D'auvigny, transcends traditional fashion portraiture to explore a surreal, modernist landscape where human subjects and inanimate figures share a singular, sculptural aesthetic. By leveraging a palette that oscillates between stark chiaroscuro black-and-white compositions and high-contrast, saturated solid backdrops, the project investigates the intersection of control, performance, and stillness. The imagery utilizes a range of sophisticated techniques, including the tactile authenticity of 35mm film, the dramatic precision of studio strobe lighting, and the subtle, moody depth of natural light. Whether framing an expressive hand cradling a metallic object, a suspended geometric marionette, or an organic still life featuring vintage glassware and textures, Vivier emphasizes clean, architectural lines that demand a contemplative gaze. Frugal is not merely an editorial spread; it is a meticulously constructed fine art exhibition that leans into the theatricality of the inanimate, inviting viewers to decode the tension between the organic and the manufactured. The result is a series that feels both timeless and aggressively avant-garde, defining a sophisticated visual language for Magazines, Media & Entertainment while pushing the boundaries of contemporary conceptual photography.
