This editorial was originally inspired by the worship of Santa Muerte - an occult figure of death venerated in Mexico. Gradually the process inquired into investigation of the comparative nature of splendor and hostility, worship and propitiation, fatality and human need to keep it in under control. Every image goes with the text written specially for this editorial to create a deeper and a richer image of this frightening yet captivating character of Death.

"Visually vigorous and imposing image created in one’s mind. She is gorgeously adorned bare life through the religious hope for almighty God and eternal Eden. Gloomy thoughts and a heavy glance sends evident vibe – there is unrevealed secret behind one’s flesh and blood. Colours delude into flourish hope for seeing the same after death, but it baffles the description. What’s ahead nothing?"

"Under the dead stain there is always a magnificent beauty … and it plays with the edge around the stature of existence. Touch shrouded in a dark mystery performs lightly along the shoulder and its modest look doesn’t say anything about the sin.
How can she take away something so tinted in such a beautiful way? Life full of colours – from glorious light till deathly dark it composes instantly, shuffles and vanishes…boom. And left is only … just the loveliness of the memory."

"Pure gorgeousness lures away the precariousness and abducts it with a veil of acquitted prettiness. She has a stony stare and a heart as cold as a dead language. Lifeless scream for righteous decree captivates her rack of bones.
Eyelids slightly cuddle view and daydreams for another chance. Nothing lasts forever even if happens to be the best…not a touch, not a kiss…not a thought."

"Don’t you dare to stay so pure and humble when human beings decorate you and the religious cries for the wealthy show, no one knows you, but everybody expects you to be seductive.
Bijouterie, bunch of flowers, sweets and gorgeousness…can’t bribe you, you have it all.
Oh…Femme fatale!"
