Conceived by Mélanie Courtinat and Salomé Chatriot, this fashion series for issue 40 of Magazine magazine explores the worlds of these two artists through a series of images featuring characteristic elements of their styles and practices.
Serving as models, their bodies were captured through 3D scanning, allowing for their transposition into a virtual universe integrated within Unreal Engine video game software. The sets are entirely CGI, crafted not with the intention of achieving photorealism, but to evoke a sense of ambiguity—celebrating the imperfections of the scans rather than concealing them.
