When I saw ‘Superhero Worship,’ an editorial by Adriana Gerasimova for Maximum Magazine, my eyes widened in awe. The remarkable images are sharp, aggressive and have a brilliant ‘Kill Bill’ feel about them.
Sword-handling model Anika is fiercely styled--covered entirely in black and white body-hugging materials, and accessorized with spiked-heel boots, oversized sunglasses and futuristic belts. Her blood-red lips and the splattered teal paint on the walls add bold color to these ultramodern photographs.
Adriana Gerasimova is a multi-talent as photographer, stylist, art director, and founder of Addminimal Agency. She is located in Bulgaria.
