The metal staircase inside the Bibliothèque Richelieu is a spiral of quiet drama—an elegant fusion of industrial grace and artistic intention. Its curves are soft but deliberate, catching the natural light that spills from above, casting delicate shadows onto the pale stone walls. Mina’s skin was the perfect canvas to catch the light spilling from the metal surface. I enjoy looking for subtleties.

Mina is an aspiring model working in Paris and it was an absolute pleasure to work with her and explore the beautiful light and space of the Bibliotheque Richelieu.
