This artwork vividly depicts three grotesque figures, each uniquely disturbing. The individuals are presented with skeletal facial features, ominous black eyepatches, and exaggerated, monstrous expressions. Their skin appears pale, contrasting sharply with the dark background, enhancing the eerie atmosphere. Metallic chains bind them, suggesting themes of captivity and torment. One figure sports a protruding horn, adding to the sinister imagery, while another has tentacle-like appendages emerging from its head, emphasizing the surreal and nightmarish quality. The composition is split into two ominous panels, intensifying the unsettling impact. This artwork stands out for its macabre style, evocative of dark fantasy and horror. The use of shadows and minimal lighting creates a haunting atmosphere, drawing the viewer into a world of chaos and despair.

Why do we dream of a simple and unique image of Eden; What happens when pain represents our sanctuary... This haunting artwork depicts three grotesque, humanoid figures divided into two panels. Their bodies are adorned with chains, spikes, and distinct facial markings, evoking an atmosphere of captivity and rebellion. The leftmost figure sports a singular horn, adding to its demonic appearance, while the others have exaggerated, ominous features like eyepatches and elongated, claw-like fingers. The central creature has a conspicuous wound on its forehead, where another horn might have been. Set against a dark background, the figures emerge from the shadows, their ghastly visages lit dramatically to emphasize their menacing expressions and surreal forms. This composition challenges perceptions of beauty and horror, exploring themes of confinement and otherworldliness. The emotional intensity and nightmarish quality command the viewer's attention, engaging them in a narrative that is both unsettling and intriguing.

Léa Bon, Gargolas III and II
Argentina  • 1993

Presentation

Léa Bon is an androgynous fashion and art photographer, with a unique, personal and spiritual body of work. Dreams and fantasies from the past and present are portrayed by Léa Bon's subjects, which she uses as her own personal dolls.

At a young age, Léa Bon found in photography the means by which she could construct her own small worlds using her imagination. Her work breaks with the stereotypes of traditional photography and goes beyond the human eye; it is a fusion between art, fashion, and humanity, evoking surrealism, expressionism, and hyperrealism.

She has done multiple exhibitions about her life, among them “First Cycle-Innocent Vision", composed of 25 works of art that portray her personal journey. Her photographs have been published in numerous fashion and art magazines around the world.
