Back Projection

Silhouettes carved from cosmic, projected color.

Book this session

What it feels like

Silhouettes carved out of cosmic, projected color. You stand between the light and the lens, and the outline of you becomes the subject — cinematic, surreal, unmistakably you.

Who it's for

Best if you love the idea of dramatic, identity-forward art that doesn't necessarily show your face. Great as a first step into projection work.

What to wear & bring

Form-fitted or flowing — both silhouette beautifully. Movement is welcome; some of the strongest frames come mid-motion.

Comfort & trust

Fully directed session. We review frames as we go, so you always know exactly what we're making.
