Petits Portraits deals of course with portraiture, layering, perspective and scale.
This project, made of seven portraits, gave rise to two projects based on the same pictures and their presentation.
Official Portraiture one one side: big in size, intimidating, important framing vs. Sentimental Portraiture, where a small scale image and a vintage frame reduced to a graphic sign around it, to allow feelings to come out and draw the viewer closer.
