Hairless breed dogs, such as the Chinese Crested and the Xoloitzcuintli, are often stigmatized and misunderstood due to their unusual appearance. Many people mistakenly believe that these dogs are sick or unattractive, but Gamand\’s portraits challenge these misconceptions by highlighting the regal and majestic qualities of these animals.

In \’Prophecy\’, Gamand\’s subjects are dressed in elaborate costumes and posed against dramatic backdrops, creating a sense of grandeur and mystique. The dogs gaze confidently into the camera, their bare skin glistening in the light, challenging viewers to reconsider their preconceived notions about hairless breed dogs.

Through her artful and thought-provoking portraits, Gamand hopes to inspire a deeper appreciation for these often overlooked animals and to celebrate the unique beauty and dignity of all creatures, regardless of their appearance.
