Inspired by Roversi. Metamorphosis.

The project Metamorphosis draws direct inspiration from Paolo Roversi, one of Darkari's favorite photographers. "I've always admired how Roversi used light painting to truly animate his subjects. That's what fascinated me the most about his work," Darkari says. By exploring Roversi's dynamic and unconventional lighting techniques—often unsuitable for static photography—Darkari studied and internalized the fundamentals of Roversi's methods. He then reimagined them through his own lens, infusing his work with a darker yet ethereal tone.
