"AIR" is F****** Young! Online's [surrealist-inspired streetwear editorial](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/silent-echoes) that features model Benjamin Prerry Boswell at Bark in Style. The photoshoot is captured by photographer Kodai's lens and features vanguard wardrobe styling by Riki Yamada.

Riki dresses Benjamin in a range of [tone-blocked tops, oversized outerwear garments](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jiyongkim-fw25) and [sporty footwear accessories](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hm-x-glenn-martens) that are photographed against a patterned sky backdrop. The theme of this image series is surrealism and it is displayed through its backdrop elements and fragmented imagery examples that play with a viewers perception.

The compositions pay tribute to the art works of Salvador Dali and René Magritte. Moreover, hair and makeup for this streetwear editorial is courtesy of Takuya Uchiyama and Tatiane Naomi Dakuzaku who create a clean coif and stark, white cosmetic applications for their model.
