The editorial Landslide stands out for its choice not to resort to complex narratives, preferring instead an intimate and concrete reflection. Mattia De Benedictis’ work develops in an atmosphere where the body and fashion become tools of self-awareness.

The protagonist of the story is Yordi Santiago Garavaglio, whose presence appears natural and authentic. In the various poses, the model does not interpret a character, but simply inhabits the space. His every movement seems to spring from an inner thought, offering an image of himself that is confident and calm.

The stylistic care follows the essential. The garments chosen do not overwhelm the individual, but accompany him discreetly. The structured garments convey solidity, the light fabrics emphasise the subject’s sensitivity and, thanks to their fluidity, the dialogue between masculine and feminine elements occurs spontaneously.

The photography is essential. The prevalent use of white within the studio does not indicate emptiness, but serves to highlight every detail. The use of black and light is also functional: the light observes without being invasive, while the dark tones delimit the shapes with extreme delicacy.

Landslide does not follow a linear plot, but represents a moment of introspection. It is a work that explores the theme of identity and personal freedom without resorting to slogans or excesses.

The true strength of this project lies precisely in its ability to communicate truth through composure and moderation.
