Van Sarki's Stunning Portraits are a Total Fashion Knock Out
Alyson Wyers — September 6, 2013 — Fashion
Van Sarki is an emerging photographer and artist whose signature stunning portraits are causing quite the stir. In an editorial for Interview Magazine, he captures emotion-evoking models using boxing gloves as props.
'Gloves On,' styled by Emma Brown, uses the gloves strategically as the subjects don't appear to be clothed. The shots only show about a third of their bodies and their facial expressions are quiet and striking, making the simple shots truly special rather than overtly seductive or cheap looking.
Based out of New York, Van Sarki's photography has a story telling element that make one emotionally invested in his work. The artist has also collaborated with Dossier and others in the fashion industry.
