There are bodies that we draw as we draw a fragile line between visible and invisible. Skinny in this space. The one with an attentive, slow look who chooses to dwell not on what is perfect, but on what is true.
The grain of the paper marries that of the skin. Skin marked by slight variations, textures, lines — Some suggest depigmentation, others forget hair. Nothing's ruined. Nothing is exaggerated. Here it is a matter of capturing the real in its purest delicacy.
Skinny is a gentle exploration of the presence, where every detail counts, and where luxury lies in the care given to observation.
