'From Dust' by Ernst H. Schwendinger is an all-white beauty shoot that uses a substance eerily similar to talcum powder to achieve a wintry, frostbitten aesthetic. The model's face is covered in white powder; the bits that stick to her lips make me think of a lost hiker in frozen tundra, a victim to the elements.
However, the model in Ernst H. Schwendinger's photo set is no victim. She tosses talcum powder into the air, vamping blithely. See more shots from the pictorial above.
