It looks like the photo series titled 'Douleur' by Niklas Hoejlund, which means 'pain' in French, has experienced a little mishap with some ink. Of course, this goes beyond a simple pen bursting accident. The splatters of ink have been arranged so artistically, it could have only been done on purpose.
Starring Trine Hyldtoft, Douleur by Niklas Hoejlund has a devilish appeal to it. In addition to the inky blacks used on the eyes, mouth, hands and back, Hyldtoft sports some frightening talons. These talons give her an overall animalistic allure that is hard to draw one's eyes away from.
Douleur by Niklas Hoejlund features the expert work of makeup artist May Naes. Naes even managed to write on Hyldtoft's back, "tear down the wall."
