Fareez show

“This series of photographs focuses on and captures the beauty of the male body. the male body itself encompasses a sense of strength and rigidity, elements softened by the smoothness of the skin and the poetic movements of the form. Each photograph captures a sense of fortitude, but at the same time, reveals the emotions of the figure. This series challenges the notions of traditional male photography – it is an attempt to reveal the true sense of the male body by capturing not only its power, but its sensitivity as well.”
