This breathtaking contemporary photographic triptych stands as a definitive and powerful statement within the Opposed Tendencies series by the renowned creative partnership Hunter & Gatti. Formulated as a three-panel multi-piece installation, this mixed media masterwork relies on premium fine art paper to host three intimate, black and white close-up crops of female countenances. The artists skillfully subvert the glossy perfection of fashion imagery by superimposing structural raw markings directly onto the photographic emulsions. Ranging from strict blue geometric frames over the eyes to organic crimson circles and energetic black oil wax gestures, the markings transform the portraits into complex psychological landscapes.
The artists further explore the endless possibilities of transformation by transforming something as ephemeral as a fashion editorial into something completely different and original: a unique work of art.

This artwork was created by the artistic duo Hunter & Gatti (2010–2023). These works are part of the archive managed and exhibited by Cristian Hunter.
Cristian Hunter’s work starts from that belief. His photographs —created over a solid international career— are not mere documents, but open territories where painting, texture, and gesture expand photography into new dimensions of meaning. Hunter explores how an image can shift in meaning over time—how context, memory, and manual intervention can transform what was once captured into something newly revealed. Each piece is an invitation to look again, to uncover what lies beneath the visible. Guided by the premise that “nothing stays still,” he works from his personal archive, reinterpreting it, giving new life to what was once lived, and breaking the linear flow between past and present. His lens has captured renowned figures such as Pharrell Williams, Penélope Cruz, Jennifer Lopez, Ewan McGregor, Lalisa Manoban, Adria Arjona, and Bruno Mars, among many others. Yet his focus goes beyond portraiture—what truly interests him is what remains when the image stops being literal and begins to emerge as a living object. His current body of work includes both new pieces and selected artworks from the artistic legacy of Hunter & Gatti, which he now manages. These are duly credited as “ created by Hunter & Gatti,” presented alongside his personal practice and establishing a dialogue between history, transformation, and contemporary gaze. His work has been exhibited in cities such as Barcelona, New York, and Miami, and reflects a visual practice grounded in experience, exploration, and ongoing evolution.
