On the Cover:
THORNS
This conceptual portrait explores the entanglement of identity, resilience, and self-expression through avant-garde fashion and body language. The model is adorned in hand-crafted, thorn-like black structures that symbolize both defence and vulnerability, while the sheer beaded veil evokes themes of concealment and mystique. The dramatic headpiece, made of painted twigs, reaches out like a growing crown, signifying internal chaos, natural strength, and transformation. The use of red undertones intensifies the mood, invoking a tension between elegance and aggression. This image challenges conventional beauty norms and delves into the emotional complexity of gender, power, and presentation.
