EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph by Carlo Bevilacqua, titled "Maril", we are transported back to the year 1979. The image portrays a young woman with wind-swept hair, her face exuding both vulnerability and strength. As we gaze at this portrait, it becomes evident that Bevilacqua has masterfully captured not only the physical beauty of his subject but also the essence of youth and age. The woman's youthful features are juxtaposed against an underlying sense of maturity in her eyes, hinting at a depth beyond her years. This photograph invites us to reflect on the individuality of each person, emphasizing both their physiological and psychological aspects. With every strand of hair delicately tousled by the wind, we witness how even seemingly insignificant parts of our body can contribute to our overall identity. The decision to present Maril in a nude form further emphasizes the rawness and authenticity conveyed through this portrait. By removing societal constructs such as clothing, Bevilacqua allows us to focus solely on Maril's natural self-expression. Through his lens, Bevilacqua captures not just a female figure but rather an entire universe encapsulated within one face. We are drawn into Maril's world - her hopes, dreams, fears - all reflected in those piercing eyes staring back at us. "Maril" is more than just a photograph; it is an exploration into what it means to be human. It reminds us that beneath external appearances lie intricate stories waiting to be discovered and understood. Carlo Bevilacqua's timeless work continues to resonate with viewers today as he skillfully immortalizes moments like these – moments that capture both the fragility and resilience inherent in every individual's journey through life.
