dissecting my work
I had collaborated with The Shelter before as a Makeup artist for photo shootings but this time we had total freedom for creating a music video with them. Along with the Director, the DP, and based on our resources, we proposed the idea of an over the top visual experience, with baroque inspiration in colours and decor. My main drive came from chiaroscuro artists from the XVII century and kitsch contemporary design. I wanted to highlight gold, wood, leather, crazy patterns and an overall look of "fakeness".
