creative CULTURE. ‘KUNST’, a beauty and fashion editorial, aims to explore self discovery, dissecting themes of perception and vulnerability. The layout of each spread, will mirror the stages of self discovery, in which individuals grapple between the tensions of conforming to the perception of others and finding oneself.

The creative direction of the editorial will focus on the styling to tell a story and reflect the experience of the individual. Inspired by Alexander Mcqueen’s AW1998 collection, the styling will employ implicit and explicit references to ‘armour’, sometimes literally, through the adornment of spikes in accessories and makeup. Where other implicit references will be presented in the form of rough and sturdy textures such as leather or latex. The silhouettes will play a vital role in presenting the individual as either defensive, strong or vulnerable. A bold and eccentric colour palette is employed to portray the chaotic, tumultuous yet exciting journey of self discovery achieved through fashion.

‘KUNST’ is created through the mediums of styling, photography, graphic design, video production, illustration, concept development, casting and set design all done by Jennifer Doan.
