'Body Works' by Vlad Golosiy is a digital photo manipulation that sheds light on the hard work that editorial beauty takes by comparing a model's face to a construction site. Using an image of a model applying mascara, Golosiy mixed in painters atop scaffolding, lawnmower-wielding landscapers, a foreman looking at plans, and an army of heavy-duty construction vehicles.
The finished image is a cheeky look at fashion photography as a whole, and all of the faces behind a single editorial shot. See close-ups from 'Body Works' by Vlad Golosiy above.
