British artist Chris Cunningham has a long list of talents including filmmaking visual art, music production and photography. His recent work is made in collaboration with streetwear imprint Supreme and it references some of his most iconic works with the electronic music scene. Specifically, his ongoing work with musician Richard David James, who is also known as Aphex Twin.
One of the duos' most iconic work dates back to 2005, where Cunningham designed the playful character Rubber Johnny to accompany a track by Aphex Twin. Notably, the six-minute video was shot in night-vision mode and it is that same video that highlights the latest Supreme collaborative pieces. The collection is comprised of hoodies and graphic tees adorned in Rubber Johnny visuals.
