Images Bio
Combining mythological symbolism with fine art photography, Badessi's works are instilled with enigmatic ambiguity often evoking a deep connection between fashion and myth. The viewer is lured by a contemporary scene referencing places in the mind immersed in the power of symbolism.

Skin Series
In my images I like to emphasize that the human body is often the mirror of nature. Nature is astonishing, perfect, even if we might frequently think it is not. Each object has its place there, its function and its unique beauty.
