Esztétika Make Up X Peter Kis

•

In the Spring of 2016 I started to work with "Esztétika Make Up" (Krisztina and Zsanett Asztalos) and Blanka Nagy photographer in order to compile the two make up artists' portfolio. Projects are going on as I write, so it's an ever-growing work for us and to-be-completed palettes for them. They work together and separately, too, hence we provide mixed pieces of their portfolios at once consisting of document and situation photographs along with conceptual and werk films.

The call word for the contest was #coachella so Zsanett prepared Zsófi to go to an imaginary festival as it was already September at the time. Zsófi was terrific as a model and the make up fit just right, so we've had a lot of fun and as the pictures indicate it was the easiest for me to photograph something beautiful.

Kriszta had the idea to do "something sick" - as she said. Outlined her multiple personality based idea to Blanka and I and we immediately caught up with it. I was struck by the idea of giving different aspects to the same person through the pictures (a classic love-hate contrast is shown through body language and accessories) while having three models and Blanka planned out a movie about the tantrums of this schizophrenic mental state.

Beauty Forum Hungary announced an online contest with the theme "The Bride of 2050" in the Summer of 2015. Zsanett chose Vivi to pose as the bride of the future in a futuristic white outfit and decided that only the make up should stand out of this bleached, minimalistic overview in order to not draw attention from her gazing visage.

The first time the four of us worked together was in April and we started off with a double feature. Anna's make up became a part of Krisztina's portfolio while Zsanett's was used as a competition call. This duo project could be called as the debut of this group and the foreseer of many ideas and cooperation coming.
