Day of the Dead

Lucas Vuitel

This series appeared in L'Express for Halloween. I was interested in a party organized in Neuchâtel with the theme "Mexican Day of the Dead" (Día de los Muertos). I decided to create a series of portraits on this theme because I find these makeups photogenic and there is something joyful about them. I set up a black background and used a flash.
