Broken

"Broken" is a poignant and deeply emotional self-portrait that captures the pain and sorrow of a broken relationship. The tears that trace down the face, shimmering like ethereal stardust, symbolize the vast and complex universe of emotions that love and loss can unleash.

This image is part of the "The Stages of a Heartbreak" series, which explores the different phases of a failed relationship, from the euphoria of falling in love to the difficult process of healing after a breakup. "Broken" represents the moment when the illusion shatters—the first wound inflicted by a loved one, the realization of their imperfections, and the end of the idealized phase.

Through a stark black-and-white aesthetic, the photograph highlights the rawness of heartbreak, immersing the viewer in an atmosphere of melancholy and contemplation. "Broken" is an image that resonates with anyone who has experienced the pain of lost love, inviting reflection on the fragility of love and the resilience needed to move forward.

1. Handling

Use Gloves: Always handle the photograph with cotton gloves to avoid leaving grease or moisture marks. A pair of cotton gloves is included inside the package.

Avoid Direct Contact: Do not touch the photograph directly with your hands. Grease and moisture can deteriorate the surface of the print.

2. Storage

Controlled Environment: Store the artwork in a cool, dry place, preferably at a room temperature between 10ºC and 30ºC with a relative humidity between 49% and 60%.

Individual Protection: If you have purchased more than one photograph, never stack them without protection between each one. Place tissue paper or any other soft paper between them to avoid damage.

3. Display

Avoid Direct Sunlight: Do not expose the artwork to direct sunlight to prevent fading.

UV Protection: If you decide to display the artwork, ensure it is protected by glass or methacrylate with UV protection.

Frame Materials: If framing the artwork, use acid-free materials for the frame and mat. If the frame is made of wood and comes into direct contact with the photograph, it must be natural wood and unvarnished.

4. Adhesives and Mounting

Acid-Free Adhesives: Use acid-free adhesives to avoid yellow marks and deterioration of the support. Any other type of adhesive can cause long-term damage.

Unrolling from Tube: If the photograph was sent in a tube, do not attempt to roll it back up after unrolling. This can cause permanent damage.

Drawer Storage: If you choose to store the artwork rather than display it, do so in a drawer and protect it with tissue paper or another soft paper to prevent scratches and damage.
