DEBES, ERGO POTES! - OUGHT, THEREFORE CAN YOU!

All of it went without saying, one image called out for the next. From the warmly accepted portrait of a famous model Kate Moss to the portrait of her friend and in the end there will be 7 of them, "The Plead series".

How will sir Elthon John look like? Apart from the style of the author the portrait has to be paradoxical, positive, strong and of course due to the well known reasons – delicate. What does the archetype of this great singer and extravagant showman who has joined a man in the same sex marriage seem to lack? The answer is simple – masculinity. So he becomes a Roman centurion I hope at the same time remaining recognizable to the public? The famous phrase of ancient Roman officers "DEBES, ERGO POTES! - OUGHT, THEREFORE CAN YOU!" gets its own peculiar charm coming from him of all people)
