Chromas & Shadows: A Study in Digital Layering

This series is a visual exploration of the modern persona as a digital palimpsest. Through double exposures and composite layering, the human form—centered on the expressive presence of Nigerian model Sofia—is intersected by geometric color grids and urban textures.
The project moves away from the "clean" portrait to embrace a world of chromatic interference, where the subject is both a canvas and a catalyst. By merging the organic curves of the face with the rigid structure of color-checkers and raw graffiti, these images question the boundaries between the individual and the digital environments we inhabit. A vibrant, avant-garde study of texture, saturation, and the surrealist blending of layers where the original identity and the digital overlays exist in a state of beautiful, permanent tension.
