Pascal and Vastian Framed Photography, 2015
Located in Barcelona, Barcelona
In the tapestry of Pascal and Vastian's artistry, behold a photograph that whispers the poignant tale of a sculpted hand, adorned in hues that dance with both resilience and fragility. A fractured finger, a silent echo of time's tender touch, rests as a testament to the delicate dance between strength and vulnerability.

In this fractured fragment, a narrative unfolds—a story untold, a chapter suspended in the eternal dance of creation and decay. The play of light caresses the sculpted contours, revealing not just the form, but the essence of the captured moment. It is a photograph that transcends the tangible, inviting the observer to feel the pulse of emotion that courses through the veins of the broken...
