This conceptual pop art portrait series brings the idea of the summer as a state of mind. More than a particular season, its concept represents the notions of carpe diem, self-confidence, and self-love. SergiO, who shows his Olympic sculptured body, proved also to be a very nice human being. He plays with objects that remind us of the need for amusement and joy, connecting with his inner playfulness. The set feels quite “Seigar”, because of the presence of colors and the female Plastic People who joined the model to share the summer fun. She was baptized with a Canarian name during the shooting: Guacimara was born that sunny day in Puerto de la Cruz. Summer on my mind has a message for you, enjoy life, love yourself, treat and talk to you nicely, and embrace the best version of yourself. You can get there. Start having summer as a state of mind.
