Yasmina Alaoui (b. 1977) and Marco Guerra (b. 1965)<br />
Yasmina Alaoui began collaborating with Chilean photographer Marco Guerra in 2005. Alaoui<br />
paints intricate, henna-inspired patterns onto Guerra’s statuesque and sensual black and white<br />
nude photographs, revealing an intricate combination <strong>of</strong> painting and portraiture. <strong>The</strong> resultant<br />
fusions are both mysterious, sensual and carnal. <strong>The</strong>ir work has been exhibited worldwide and<br />
forms part <strong>of</strong> the collections <strong>of</strong> the Marrakech Museum <strong>of</strong> Photography, the Brooklyn Museum in<br />
New York, the Art Museum <strong>of</strong> Sana'a in Yemen and the Quai Branly Museum in Paris.<br />
