KALTBLUT presents: Of Atelier – who started their work in the 90’s alongside Patricia Field in NYC, now one of the most sought out designers in the Caribbean.”La Capital” was shot in its entirety in the streets of the tropical island of Old San Juan, Puerto Rico. Gender non conforming NY model Richie Moo from Trans Models NY agency and 107 Models personifies the essence of the times. The island of Puerto Rico right now is facing one of its toughest battles in terms of an economic crisis that is holding the island at bay. This of course influenced a boom of many fleeing to the main land (U.S.) running from the low wages and social cultural damage done by the crisis itself. This, sparked a resurgence in the arts and fashion community at the Island of enchantment. Stylist Adrian Joseph and Photographer Silvia Priscilla captured the model who traveled to his home land to work on this project.
