The project explores contemporary menswear aesthetics through a sequence of studio portraits, utilizing clean compositions and dramatic chiaroscuro lighting to emphasize the subject’s physique and detailed body art. Featuring model Christian Hogue, the editorial integrates elements of visual effects to explore futuristic concepts. The imagery leans into a minimalist studio aesthetic, blending natural light with high-contrast studio setups to document a series of structured and avant-garde looks.
