This evocative black-and-white photograph presents a close-up of a hand delicately resting on textured skin. The composition is striking in its simplicity, focusing on the interplay of light and shadow across the elegant curves of the fingers, adorned with dark nail polish. Each ridge and contour is captured with precision, highlighting the tactile nature of human touch. The presence of a subtle ring adds a touch of intimacy and personal narrative to the scene. The absence of color emphasizes the raw emotion conveyed through the gesture and the textural contrast between the skin and the polished nails. This artwork masterfully captures a moment of quiet introspection, evoking themes of connection and vulnerability, while the monochrome palette enhances its timeless essence.

Mauricio Velez, Half Angels Half Demons #29
Colombia  • 1971

Presentation

Mauricio Velez was born and lives in Colombia. He was trained at the European Institute of Design in Italy. Since then, he has worked on a large number of projects in Latin America, the United States and Spain, offering, through his personal prism - images which he seeks to refine the sensitivity and perception of the viewer towards religious icons, art, and the human body.

His work confronts the viewer with a sense of aesthetics that balances between the spiritually inspired and the disturbed.

"In few photographers like Mauricio Velez does aesthetic become ethic. Every portrait scene is seamless. Every composition is an impeccable piece: the light, gesture, even the preference in models. Nothing can be discredited of the photographic style neither the clean technic. And for this aesthetic perfection, the message lends to the viewer in its pure state."
