Pristine and pure, the photo series titled Bare by Fenia Labropoulou is probably what a lot of people would imagine heaven to look like. The dazzling white backdrop and gown, not to mention the paleness of the model's skin, work together to create an ethereal and angelic aesthetic that will have anyone closing their eyes in silent prayer.
Yet the powdered arms and blood-red mask present in the photo series Bare by Fenia Labropoulou tampers slightly with this divine image. Nothing is ever what it appears to be at first. Instead, the Greek-based photographer has simply shot a photo spread that is artistic in its beauty and clean in its execution with a flutter of emotion all around.
