Photography & Collage: Lucilla Bellini

Model: Stefania Bianchi

MUA: Poppy Ramos

Lucilla Bellini is an Italian fashion image maker and artist with a specific focus on representations of women in visual culture. To New Beginnings aims to deconstruct the notion of Beauty in photography whilst creating something aesthetically pleasing. The makeup and the editing both play into this notion of imperfection in this collaborative series between model, makeup artist and photographer. We love seeing Collage by a Photographer using their own work. In this series, Bellini starts with prints in both colour and black and white with acrylic paint and magazine clippings to create new textures, effects and shapes. This exclusive editorial of mixed media imagery questions beauty from the perspective of self and as an industry as a whole.  

Model wears mix of Gucci and vintage jewellery.
