feature: photographer tatu garcia and collagist lola dupre collaborate to produce new beautifully edgy series ‘hedonismo’
When two artists combine to create one piece, the outcome is- most often than not- some of the most creatively constructed and intriguing works. ‘Hedonismo’, for REMIX Magazine- the most recent collaboration of photographer Tatu Garcia and collagist Lola Dupre lives up to their joint reputations; possibly even surpassing it, as it translates a new, edgy vibe to the concept of fashion and visual art. Applying her collage-making skills to that of Garcia’s photos, Dupre reshapes the original images- gifting them an animalistic fluidity and drawing viewers into the world of it’s conception. The lines shaped by the two artists, slightly resembling that of traditional african wood sculptures, give the piece a more organic and cultural aesthetic- yet leave ample room for interpretation. A truly edgy experience, check out ‘Hedonismo’ below.
