I UNFOLD MY SKIN IN THE MORNING
I UNFOLD MY SKIN IN THE MORNING" explores the ways we shape and perceive our bodies through the lens of performance and societal expectations. By revealing this
costume and confronting the vulnerabilities of the real body, I aim to expose the tensions between the ideal and the authentic, control and surrender, the human and the
monstrous. This project invites us to question the norms that shape us and to embrace imperfection as a form of truth.
Could you imagine ?
Could you imagine? is a project in the form of a visual journal that explores representations of male orgasm in mainstream pornography. By isolating screenshots at the exact moment of climax, I focus on these extreme facial expressions—suspended between pain, ecstasy, rage, or surrender—which, once removed from their explicit context, lose their original meaning and shift into ambiguity.
These portraits, reduced to facial expressiveness alone, become visual enigmas. Torn from their initial function, they open up a space for projection where the male body ceases to be a vehicle of performance and instead becomes a surface for interpretation. By feeding these images into artificial intelligence via Photoshop, I ask it to reconstruct a context based solely on the expressions, without ever revealing their pornographic origin. The algorithm then invents fictional scenes—sometimes absurd, sometimes poetic—unveiling the narrative and polysemous potential of these intimate fragments.
The project thus questions the normative construction of male pleasure and its stereotyped iconography, proposing a critical decontextualization through image. It is a shift, a slippage: unsettling the obvious, disrupting the gaze, and allowing new narratives to emerge from the same point of tension.
