“The Serpent” webitorial

Snakes are a symbol of wisdom in some African cultures. Hugo, rapper and model, is from Congo and the photographer wanted to use snakes rather than thinking about the scene, to accentuate the vision of this meaning. Simple images come to life through the use of characters, and in this case the result is more powerful, using both Hugo as the main protagonist but also snakes, to build a sense of wonder around him.
