It’s not rare that we ask ourselves: what animal do I resemble with? The links between animals and humans are strong and they cannot be denied. But one photographer went further and imagined animals dressed in clothes, in very human-like positions. And this is what came out of it:

What is interesting about the project is the fact that the artist tried to connect an animal to a type of clothing, so an animal’s personality would influence the way they dress. Also, you will definitely appreciate the clothes: so classy, so well put together, like they have such a good sense of fashion. It’s a pleasure to see the way in which colours mix, and the choice of materials which is absolutely stunning. It makes you think that animals would make so beautiful people!

Second Skins is the project that made Miguel Vallinas famous. Something so simple became so well-known because these animals, although strange, have a touch of melancholy, effect which is given not only by the subject, but by the way the artist creates the context. It’s also the light, it’s the colours, it’s the way in which they blend in so well, creating these half-humans, half-animals that do not look like monsters, but on the contrary, they underline the beauty of them both. Also, you can imagine that these animals have a human life and do human activities and you can see them going to work in an autumn morning.
