Gisele Bundchen Rises From Sea As Mythical 'SHE' Firebird Lensed By Luigi + Iango For Vogue Germany

Supermodel Gisele Bundchen channels the mythical, sacred firebird, ‘SHE’, who dominated the evolution of human consciousness until the rise of monotheism and Abrahamic religion, based on one God who is male. Scholars generally consider the Phoenix to be female or a creature embodying both female + male elements. Many of the Greeks began to write of the Phoenix as male, and early Christianity adopted the Phoenix as a symbol of resurrection.

Paul Cavaco styles Gisele, who has a near elemental relationship with nature, the foundation of her environmental activism. And photographers Luigi & Iango captures her as a mythical water goddess ‘Making Waves’ in the pages of Vogue Germany April 2019./ Hair by Luigi Murenu; makeup by Erin Parsons
