Artist Yasmina Alaoui and photographer Marco Guerra love to  tantalize  their audience.  In their life-sized photographic series “one thousand and one dreams”,  statuesque bodies apear frozen in time, covered  from  head to toe in  meticulously detailed, contemporary Arabic  Henna patterns. Each artwork  begins with a black and white nude photograph by Guerra.  Layers of  Alaoui’s complex ink drawings are then fused with the portrait.
