Native Catfish – Surreal Byzantine SelfPortrait

Yours truly participated in a fashion show a few weeks ago for designer Carolina Sunshine; and had my friend and makeup artist, Yvannia Perez, take a few pictures of my face in this war-like fish-esque look. Thought the perfect treatment for this image would be to explore Byzantine portraits, and how “light” and metallic materials are so important to frame the subject.
