Date: 1 May - 15 Jun 2012
In swapping religious iconography for the tropes of modern society, Vargas’ purpose is perhaps to highlight the conflicts and contrasts that exist in the art field. While almost crossing the line into gratuity, the portraits stand as a testament to a photographer who is pushing the boundaries of aesthetics and challenging how we view the nude.
