Monument

Amsterdam 2026

Model: Wemi. A

Makeup artist: Deborah Antheunis

A woman in a white shirt looks straight into the camera, one hand resting on her head, the other tucked under her chin, a large ornate silver earring at her jaw.
The same woman walks in profile along a low concrete ledge, full length in a loose white outfit, her long braid falling past her waist.
Seen from behind, she stands in a bare concrete corridor as a single diagonal shaft of sunlight crosses a low bench.
She stands in a narrow gap between two tall concrete walls, one arm braced against the stone, the sea and a clouded sky showing through the opening.
A small white figure stands on concrete steps beside a single tall pillar, a vast plane of still water and towering cloud filling the rest of the frame.

A monument is not built from perfection. It is built from everything that remained.

Profile against a deep blue wall, chin lifted and eyes closed, in a cream outfit with a sculptural silver earring.
