Title: The Caravaggio Girl  

Location: Paris  

''Dressed in a knitted Balmain couture piece, she stands at the edge of light, echoing the dramatic chiaroscuro of Caravaggio, where shadow holds as much weight as illumination. Though simple, this portrait became a cornerstone in shaping my photographic style.    Elizabeth Wood was the very first model I photographed, and in this image, she entrusted me with embodying her as a modern-day samurai.''
