Shiseido: Self Portraits for Shiseido

Mar 2024

Shiseido presents a series of self-portraits that bridge the gap between traditional beauty photography and experimental art. Captured by photographer and creative director Bismuth Arsenide, the project explores the interplay between cosmetic application and textile design through a range of editorial techniques. Working alongside creative director James Boehmer, the execution leans into a mix of clean studio lighting and avant-garde styling. Techniques such as high-key photography and monochrome composition highlight the intricacies of the makeup artistry, while abstract collage elements introduce graphic, mixed-media depth to the series.
