Aside from the somewhat disturbing nipple-less model Gabriela Menin, the Ivor Fuentes 'Skade' portfolio is beautifully avant-garde. Relying on nothing more than a sparse set, a radiant model and an almost abstract concept, there is something very surreal about the whole series.
Since Chile-based Ivor Fuentes is a master at fashion photography and photo manipulation, I'm sure the element of unease is purely intentional. Yet overall the Ivor Fuentes 'Skade' photo series is simply stunning.
