Australian artist Christian Thompson showcases his visually striking work on Manuscript magazine's latest cover. The publication's #12 issue features a captivating photograph of a faceless man whose features are replaced by a bouquet of flowers.
The black and white flowers include roses and stems of baby's breath and are superimposed atop an image of a man who dons a colorful hoodie. The garment is worn with its hood up, boasting a Union Jack print that mirrors the British flag.
Christian Thompson's art is known for pushing visual boundaries and this cover image for Manuscript's latest cover is no exception. The image is eye-catching and conceptual -- two themes synonymous with the fashion and art that Manuscript spotlights in each of its editions.
