English Version | Ghost in the Shell

A fragment of life in which we feel reclusive. A frame of the narrative in which we are a specter. A still photograph in which we look like a spirit. A make-up routine in which we are a shadow. In which we are all the shades of the rainbow and eyeliners that mask any (un)appearance. A mirrored image in which we are black and white lipstick colours, our complexion as transparent as our emotions, empty of intent. This is the story of a perfect make-up day, recorded only in ghostly flashes.
