BECOME A WORK OF ART – WITH PATRICIO REIG
AN EXCLUSIVE PORTRAIT SESSION WITH ARTIST PATRICIO REIG, WHERE YOU’RE TRANSFORMED INTO TIMELESS ART.
Patricio’s portraits are not about traditional smiling poses, but rather an artistic and timeless experience that could be described as a 'vintage' style of portraiture.
After the session, you will be presented with 12 different images from which you can select the one(s) you would like to transform into an artwork through Patricio’s unique process. He works with both analog and digital cameras, with no Photoshop retouching, the portraits are a raw image of the soul.
The photographs will then be processed in his Milan studio and delivered in good time before Christmas 2025, making it a perfect Christmas gift.
If desired, Patricio can also write a poem about your session, which he will handwrite on your portrait.
Words from Patricio Reig
For me, a portrait is never a simple reproduction of a face, but rather a silent pact, a fleeting encounter that seeks to translate itself into a form of eternity. When I take a portrait, I listen. The camera ceases to be a merely technical instrument: it becomes a medium, a bridge. I have always felt that a portrait involves a risk. It does not obey absolute truths, but feeds on a shared will and a sum of external circumstances that end up shaping the result. The subject exposes themselves – consciously or not – to showing a part of themselves that they may not know. We are mistaken in believing that a portrait should show us at our best, when in fact its strength lies in penetrating a deeper layer, where the essential can prevail. That is why I say that the act of photography is not limited to freezing a moment in time: it goes beyond that. It is the invisible imprint of an intangible soul. Portraying is, in essence, preserving the memory of the human in its most fragile and luminous state. And yet, the process does not end there. Photography is born in matter, goes through a mental process and materialises again to close the circle. Only then does the invisible acquire presence, the imagined becomes reality and that hidden truth settles forever in a fragment of paper that vibrates in your hands.
