PROJECT TEASER

Handlarka Śmiercią

Inspired by Grimm’s "Der Gevatter Tod"

-->

Creative Concept

The project is a visual story about the duality of existence — the thin line between beginning and end. You embody an archetypal figure: the personification of Fate, who manages the cycle of life with an almost craftsman-like routine. The session has the character of a dark fairy tale set in a raw natural landscape. It is a study of contrasts: the delicacy of fabrics and the roughness of the earth, the ethereality of the body and the weight of inevitability.

Stylistics and Atmosphere

Planned Scenes

  1. Wander: The figure returning from the "market of worlds" with attributes symbolizing life balance.
  2. Rite of Passage: Work with candlelight in the landscape – symbolic extinguishing and igniting the sparks of life.
  3. Written Fate: Work with text and paper as a form of settling with time.
  4. Texture & Body: Artistic close-ups of details (ash, dust, smoke) in contact with skin.

What I expect from the model

Body awareness and the ability to work with fabric in motion. Expression based on calm, stateliness and melancholy (we are not afraid of "dirty" frames – ash, earth).
