Humanae
Humanae is a chromatic inventory, a project that reflects on the colors beyond the borders of our codes by referencing the PANTONE® color scheme.
(PANTONE® Guides are one of the main classification systems of colors, which are represented by an alphanumeric code, allowing to accurately recreate any of them in any media. It is a technical industrial standard often called Real Color)
The project development is based on a series of portraits whose background is dyed with the exact Pantone® tone extracted from a sample of 11x11 pixels of the portrayed’s face. The project’s objective is to record and catalog all possible human skin tones.
Angelica Dass (Rio de Janeiro, 1979)
She studied Fashion Design and graduated as a Bachelor of Fine Arts at the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro (Brasil). After working in the fashion industry in Brazil, she moved to Spain where she has mastered Photography Concept and Creation by EFTI Photography School.
Angélica raises his work as a tool of exploration, questioning and search for identity, their own and others and understands the photography like a dialogue, like a game which the personal and social codes are put at stake to be reinvented, a continuous circulate and flow between the photographer and the/the photographed, a bridge between masks and identities.
