Re-Edition Magazine

In a striking convergence of performance art and high-concept fashion, Sea World with Florentina Holzinger for Re-Edition Magazine pushes the boundaries of editorial photography. By placing the acclaimed performer in an array of surreal underwater environments, photographer Karl Felix masterfully captures a dreamlike tension between the human form and liquid space. The project relies on cinematic, underwater photography to create an otherworldly aesthetic, where the refraction of natural light turns pools into canvas. With creative guidance from fashion editor and stylist Daliah Spiegel, the visual narrative is heavily textured, incorporating industrial elements like metallic drying racks and chains alongside ethereal, translucent plastics that wrap around the subject like tactile ribbons. Set designer Stefanie Grau elevates these scenes with a deliberate, minimalist sensibility, allowing the stark interplay of shadows and submerged objects—from toy helicopters to spiky collars—to take center stage. These images lean into a haunting, weightless grace, utilizing live-action techniques to emphasize the dynamic movement of the subject against the stillness of the water. The result is a profound, meditative exploration of space and texture that feels both highly curated and hauntingly spontaneous. This collection stands as a testament to the power of artistic collaboration, successfully translating Holzinger’s performance background into a series of haunting, high-fashion portraits that linger in the mind long after the initial view.
