For Alla Carta issue, we crafted a striking visual that merges classical symbolism with contemporary boldness. The image features the nude torso of a man, with a meticulously designed, 3D-modeled phallic armor seamlessly integrated through compositing. The armor, rendered in tarnished silver, showcases intricate detailing—its weathered texture and elaborate engravings evoke the authenticity of historical armory while subverting its traditional context.

This juxtaposition of raw human vulnerability and ornate metallic craftsmanship creates a provocative dialogue between strength and fragility, reality and artifice, making the piece both visually arresting and conceptually layered.
