SOBRE LA OBRA — Black Rabbit
ABOUT THE WORK — Black Rabbit
“Black Rabbit” is a black-and-white photograph that reinterprets the iconic Playboy bunny symbol. Rather than embodying the playful and seductive image typically associated with this cultural emblem, the subject conveys an air of mystery and challenge.
The combination of leather, a bunny mask, and dramatic lighting transforms the character into a melancholic figure inspired by punk, stripping the image of glamour and replacing it with intrigue. The downward gaze and closed posture reinforce the sense of introspection, challenging conventional expectations associated with this symbol.
As part of the Pop series, this image plays with elements of popular culture and its role in the construction of femininity, showing how familiar icons can be redefined and recontextualized.
Seller's Story
Lídia Vives is a visual artist and fine art photographer in Barcelona. Her work draws from pictorial tradition, symbolic storytelling and contemporary fashion aesthetics, creating carefully constructed images that go beyond surface beauty to reveal hidden layers of meaning.
She is known for embedding subtle narrative details and recurring symbolic elements within her photographs, inviting viewers to slow down and engage with the image beyond its first reading. These visual cues have become a distinctive part of her artistic language.
Influenced by Renaissance and Baroque painting, Vives balances the timeless and the surreal, often working with staged environments, custom-made props and self-portraiture. Her practice combines meticulous art direction with a strong sense of atmosphere and visual cohesion.
Alongside her personal artistic work, she collaborates with brands, media and institutions on editorial, cultural and commercial projects, always maintaining a concept-driven approach and a consistent visual identity.
Her work has been exhibited in museums, galleries and international art fairs, and featured in publications such as Esquire. She has collaborated with institutions and brands including RTVE and Penguin Random House, and her works are held in private collections worldwide
