Feature: Mind Games by Irina Klimenko

In Mind Games, Irina Klimenko and Эльза Модрич craft a world where beauty becomes a battlefield of perception. The images unfold like scenes from a fevered dream, drenched in deep green shimmer and lit as though from beneath the subconscious. Модрич appears as both muse and architect of her own mythology, poised between stillness and motion, clarity and blur.

The gown, designed by Модрич, is a tempest of metallic folds that gathers around the body like armour. Paired with Oksana Repina’s sculpted waves and Аиша Магомедова’s razor sharp eye make up, the look recalls the silver screen siren but twisted through a modern, surrealist lens. Every frame feels deliberate, every gesture heightened, as if caught in the moment before a spell takes hold.

This is glamour sharpened to a point. A performance of control that slips, intentionally, into something more vulnerable. The result is a study of identity and illusion, where the line between the self and the character grows beautifully unstable.
