Claudia Grimaldi Marks This series is a beautiful set combining beautiful portraits and layers of texture and objects to create pieces that are both exquisite and meaningful.
The project explores the theme of withering and the desire to preserve youth. Dried flowers and plants in each photo symbolize the natural process of withering, they reflect not only physical but also emotional aging, the accumulation of experience and internal transformation. The plants are dry and lifeless, but they still have beauty. They are beautiful in their frozen form, but at the same time very fragile. The blurred surface, covered with different substances, serves as a metaphor for modern attempts to hide the traces of time.
