We’ve seen humans mutate into animals as art before, but Dazed & Confused thinks there are people out there who love their furniture and home decor so much, they’d want to mutate and blend into them.
The editorial ‘Mutate’ by photographer Carlotta Manaigo features model Jakob Wiechmann, who was styled by Robbie Spencer in fashion designs that helped him blend in with the furniture of the room, which was in turn set up by David White.
Jakob becomes a lamp, a chair, a curtain, a chandelier, wallpaper and more.
