This dazed collection of photographs by Xevi Muntane for Wonderland magazine are charged with youthful energy.
Sitting in a haze-like state, the models are adorned with glaring neon lights that reflect fiercely pouting faces. The title 'The Construction of Light' is an interesting concept, heightening the aesthetically astounding photographs. The LSD circus theme is drawn out with slouchy gypsy pants, and disco caps. One photograph features the model with half a disco ball as a chapeau. Another features a crowned model with puffy Beetlejuice-inspired sleeves. At the center of the ring, with slouching neon socks and an all-neutral attire, the model stands sullen.
The editorial uses playful lighting and eccentric attire to create a whirlwind experience. The Xevi Muntane for Wonderland shoot is haute hallucination.
