Mateusz Stankiewicz is a Polish photographer who managed to capture the Canadian model, Rick Genest, for the Polish Edition of Fashion Magazine. The spooky male model, dubbed Zombie Boy, has been making waves ever since his cameo in Lady Gaga's video for Born this Way.

The series is incredibly expressive, giving Rick Genest an unexpected emotional depth.
