The Shark Tooth

The Shark Tooth is a dark portrait and was taken with natural light in an abandoned barn in New Zealand. Paprika was used to make the cross on the face which gives an amazing rust-color when exposed to natural light. This photo reveals the history of human-being in a symbolic way. Paprika represents the blood, the cross represents faith and shark tooth hidden under the cover represents history's greatest lies that were made by no-one but by ourselves.
