I got the idea for this portrait during a conversation with a man who told me about his large scar on his back due to a painful spine surgery when he was young. In the meantime he fell secretly in love with a foreign woman violet, but doesn't dare to reveal himself to her. I convinced him to pose for my camera and tried to find a perfect balance between his scar and his violet.
