36. POWER

Visionaire has always been about the power of image making. With POWER, we took nature and beauty as our starting points and combined these natural elements with holographic papers and supernatural printing techniques. Thomas Demand's hyperreal image of grass (actually 72,000 cut blades of paper) stood in contrast to Inez van Lamsweerde and Vinoodh Matadin's surreal cover collage featuring Bjork. We used Shiseido face powder to silk-screen a portrait by makeup artist Tom Pecheux, turning makeup into art. Housed in an iridescent injection-molded case, POWER welcomed contributors such as Nick Knight, Mariko Mori, Thomas Struth, Roni Horn, Warren du Preez and Nick Thornton Jones, Wolfgang Tillmans, and Peter Fischli/David Weiss.

Limited Edition of 5000 numbered copies.
