STORY OF A DAY IN THE SUN
It is early, but it is already hot. The sun has already begun its rotation above our heads. We are in the heart of the Indian summer, a summer that lingers endlessly. Yet, far from the solstice, the beautiful days have not yet had their final word. A program paced by: lounging, tanning, surfing, diving, and laughing.
This is what we call life under the sun. This photographic collection, centered on the power of femininity during summer, resonates like a solar epic. This collection, featuring six artists including Sam Dameshek, celebrates summer femininity. Between swims, surf sessions, and rides, the models chase the sun with sensuality.
SAM DAMESHEK
In ten years, Sam has established himself as a leading figure in fashion photography, signing celebrity portraits, album covers, and campaigns for major brands. Despite early fame, he favors natural light, film photography, and an authentic approach. Photographer, art director, and producer, he has collaborated with the most prominent actors, musicians, top models, and singers of his generation.
ELENA IV-SKAYA
She is a photographer who made her mark with a vivid, colorful approach to femininity. By creating strong, structured, and elegant compositions, she built a distinctive and recognizable signature style. Her models appear powerful and untouchable, often set against seaside landscapes, another metaphorical element of femininity.
MAXIM NAUMANN
Influenced by figures such as Peter Lindbergh and Magnum, he works between fashion photography, portraiture, and street photography. His works are carried by a tension between, on one hand, melancholy and sadness as narrative emotions, and on the other, the warmth and lightness of summer motifs.
PATRICIA FAURE
Patricia Faure illustrates an ode to beauty and seeks to instill in women a powerful sense of freedom. Through photography, she experiments with suggestive nudes and contrasting black‑and‑white silhouettes to reveal the natural femininity and playfulness of her models. All set in décors that evoke an endless summer.
MARIO STEFANELLI
He expresses unwavering admiration for femininity and enjoys creating compositions that highlight the body and attitudes. He enhances their curves with subtlety and humor, adding a touch of irreverence to their poses. Mario Stefanelli always chooses idyllic, sun‑drenched settings to stage his models.
VOLKER HANSEN
"Tales from the Tides" is a series of black-and-white photographs that capture the movement of the sea and the harmony between the ocean and human existence. The photographer is constantly in search of waves, capturing them with a raw and authentic approach to reveal a story of oneness between his subject and the water.
