This compelling artwork stands out as a definitive statement in a mixed media fine art piece, masterfully balancing premier fashion photography with raw, expressive action painting. Developed by the internationally acclaimed artistic duo Hunter & Gatti (2010–2023) as part of their travel archive My Way, the piece documents a spiritual journey with Hollywood actress Adria Arjona through Tokyo and Thailand. Cristian Hunter reclaims and expands the archival black and white photograph on premium 255 grs fine art paper by manually intervening the face with thick coats of acrylic and oil wax. A monumental, vortex-like circular sweep of white paint partially veils and masks the subject's gaze, punctuated by visceral, vertical streaks of bright pink and crimson paint that drip down the field like traditional ritual elements. By contrasting high-end portrait cleanlines with spontaneous abstract disruption.
These works are part of the MY WAY project, a trip with the actress Adria Arjona to Tokyo and Thailand, these paintings recover the essence of a series of traditional ceremonies lived and documented in those two countries.
This contemporary piece showcases a photograph intervened by the artists, imbuing it with unique textures and evocative layers that invite viewers to explore new perspectives.
