DAZED – BEAUTY

Transforming the traditional beauty editorial for a multimedia gaze, including a social media landscape ripe with illusory cosmetic embellishments, in late 2018 Du Preez & Thornton Jones collaborated on a short film for British style bible Dazed & Confused’s online beauty platform, Dazed Beauty. Conceived as a luscious futuristic coalescence of the human and the synthetically augmented – “an intangible state of dreams suspended between abstraction and surrealist fantasy, of artificial mutation” – it was created in partnership with celebrated British make-up artist, Andrew Gallimore.
