NIKE’S “THE 10” By Virgil Abloh
Experiments In Expression Air Force 1 WORKSHOP To be selected for this Workshop I had to submit 3 images: one had to represent Remixed, one Reconstructed and the last one Icons. For the first theme I Photoshopped Kanye West’s face onto a Mozart portrait; for reconstructed I decided to create a photomontage overlapping pictures of the temple of Baal in Palmira before and after the bombing (thet event occurred not long before the workshop) and as Icons I Photoshopped the face of an historical Icon: the Mona Lisa, of a vintage Icon: Marilyn Monroe and of a nowdays Icon Beyonce on the heads of the most iconic doll ever: Barbie. After being selectet I had the oportunity to put myself in Virgil Abloh shoes and work on the restyling of a white Air Force 1.
