Lilith — lingerie and anonymous nude in Mexico City

Not every woman who wants to do a session can or wants to be recognised. Work, family, a small city, a career that does not allow that conversation. Letting that keep them out of photography is an avoidable loss.

With Lilith the agreement was explicit before the first light went on: the series gets published, the face does not. What you see here is exactly what she authorised, not one frame more.

It is an option open to anyone who works with FANATIA, and it applies to private sessions too: we can work under anonymity or confidentiality, agreed in writing.

Removing the face changes the whole problem. With no gaze to lead the reading, the weight falls on the silhouette, the texture of the skin, the gesture of the hands and above all on where the shadow lands.

Light stops illuminating and starts deciding: what reads, what is implied and what disappears. In an anonymous series, what stays in shadow matters as much as what is lit.

The result sits closer to composition — lines, volume, contrast — than to portraiture. It is figure photography in the classical sense.

The series was produced in Mexico City, like the whole FANATIA archive. It covers the same range as the rest of the work: it starts in lingerie and arrives at figure, without either being the goal in itself.

Can a session be done without showing the face?

Yes. Anonymity is agreed in writing before the session, like every other limit. Lilith’s series was published in full under that agreement.

Who decides which photographs get published?

The model. Doing a session does not authorise publishing anything: image use is agreed separately and can be limited or kept entirely private.

Where are the sessions shot?

In Mexico City. Open-call sessions are shot in a studio in Cd. Nezahualcóyotl, minutes from the city.
