Yulia Taits, an Israel-based photographer, has created a captivating series titled “Porcelain Beauty”, which showcases the unique and mesmerizing beauty of people with albinism. Through her lens, Taits has been able to debunk common stereotypes and reveal the rich complexity of albinism, highlighting the various tints and shades of white that characterize this condition.
Her work not only celebrates the aesthetic aspects of albinism but also promotes a deeper understanding and appreciation for the natural beauty inherent in these individuals. The series has been praised for its ability to capture the pure and almost fantastical beauty of its subjects without the need for digital enhancement, thereby challenging the viewers’ perceptions and encouraging a conversation about diversity and beauty standards.
For some time I’ve had the idea to create and photograph a project featuring albino people or people with Albinism. Their unique beauty hypnotizes me. This beauty is so pure and amazing for me, as if it was taken from fantasies and fairy tale legends. As a photoshop artist, I have a passion to create fantasy worlds through my work and artistry. This series was an amazing experience for me because I could create this beautiful photography without photoshop. What transpired was pure natural beauty. All of the photographs were taken in white tones with no additional coloring. I’m excited to prove that white is not just one color! It has many tints, shades and beautiful tones.
