Decoration of the face and body in fashion, beauty and the arts

Cedric Pradel

“My ideology comes across with the help of elaborate masks and nudity, which bring fragility to the finished photograph. By being naked, the characters in the picture find themselves completely exposed, but they also find security and confidence behind the facade created by the masks. Daily routines, habits and culture, are all facts that are shielded off, the mask makes feeling and essence float to the surface.”
