This photograph was taken in 2018, at an abandoned farmhouse near Volterra, in the heart of Tuscany. Hidden about 2 kilometres down a dusty track and surrounded by woodland, the house seemed to have been deserted for well over 30 years —a remarkable and unexpected discovery. I had been searching for another ruin in the area, which, as it turned out, had been restored. However, this forgotten gem remained untouched and neglected, retaining its raw, atmospheric charm.
To add a sense of narrative, I asked Terez to go up the stairs while tying her hair into a bun. This simple, directed action gave the image a story-like quality. The tonality of the space inspired me to create a low-contrast, pencil-drawing-like exposure, emphasising its subdued and timeless character. Terez embraced the concept wholeheartedly and loved the resulting print. This shot remains one of my all-time favourite nude photographs.
