Andi Galdi Vinko’s explosion of hair and glitter

Photographer Andi Galdi Vinko from Hungary has a MA in Art History and has created the series below in close collaboration with make-up artists and hair stylist to create a blast of glitter, naked bodies and hair extensions. “I usually only work with hairstylists and makeup artists when it comes to commissioned projects and usually our hands are tied and we can’t go crazy. Here, we had no rules to follow, no client and no demands,” explains Galdi Vinko. The models were covered in glitter and hair sprouts from unexpected areas. The series is more intimate than it seems at first because the photographer draws inspiration from hidden knowledge: “It’s a playful observation on how glitter and rainbow makes everything different, or at least that’s what we are supposed to think, right? This whole new feminism is about being naked and proud of your body – but isn’t it all for the joy of men again?” Her portraits and still-lifes have gained international recognition in recent years, including an exhibition at this year’s Photoville, in New York.
