Another October means another meeting with Anastasia in my studio for her annual portrait. It’s been 22 years since we started this project, and after this very long run, we’ve completed the 23rd image.
Everything began in October 2003, when a very young Anastasia entered my studio for the first time. On that occasion, I took her portrait without having a project in mind. Coincidentally, Anastasia returned to my studio the following October, in 2004, and I made a second portrait similar to the first one. From that moment on, it became clear that this could become a long-term project, so we decided to meet every October for as long as possible, each year repeating the portrait and adding new images to the series.
