Street artist Thierry Guetta who is also known as 'Mr. Brainwash' has created a special edition art cover for the latest issue of edgy style publication ADON. Known for its vividly designed covers, the magazine revives pop art inspired elements and fuses them with the urban artist's pop culture infused imagery.

British top model Sam Way stars on the cover and is captured by photographer Joseph Sinclair's lens. The model channels a retro rocker as he sports a slicked back coif that matches his all-black and leather-clad wardrobe that is styled by Kyran Low and Shai Spooner.

Sam poses against an artful graffiti backdrop that boasts vibrant color hues and a portrait of iconic British supermodel Kate Moss that was custom designed by Mr. Brainwash for this visionary issue.
