The artwork “Vogue giraffe” by Costum Debiet features a giraffe on the cover of the famous fashion magazine “Vogue”, surrounded by illustrations of flowers. The combination of the image of a wild and exotic animal with the glamorous aesthetic of fashion is interesting and captivating. The mixed media technique used in the artwork creates a vibrant texture, with epoxy and figurative elements combined in a harmonious composition. The choice of placing the giraffe on the cover of Vogue can be interpreted as a critique of superficiality and the obsession with fashion and physical appearance, but it can also be seen as a celebration of the unique and uncommon beauty of each individual. “Vogue Giraffe” is an artwork that challenges the norms of fashion and questions what is considered “beautiful” or “elegant”. With dimensions of 150x100cm, the piece will certainly catch the attention of the viewer and provoke reflections on the relationship between fashion and identity.
