CommedIa dell’arte

Editorial for Ladygunn Magazine

photos and videos by indie studios

For this Ladygunn Magazine menswear editorial, Indie Studios was inspired by the whimsical world of “Commedia dell’arte”. Literally translated to “comedy of artists”, these Italian theatre shows which began in the1400s, featured improv actors wearing elaborate costumes & masks, which inhibited their ability to preform. The actors resorted to over-the-top gestures and accents to communicate their plots to audiences. Out of this affected style of performance, modern day clowns were born.
