Argentine musician and collage artist Mariano Peccinetti wants nothing more than to open a portal into your subconscious. Peccinetti scours old magazines to find ways to superimpose the human onto the divine. The result? Meme-ified works of surrealism that simultaneously evoke Dalì and newspaper comics. The artist makes Le Marché des Merveilles timepieces seem right at home on lions and giraffes in outer space for #TFWGucci. Another watch is even orbiting like a Gucci moon. Captions by John Trulli animate the collages and give the animals internal (social) lives. - Text by Helen Holmes.

The collage artist Edouard Taufenbach, takes a serialized tack when constructing his kaleidoscopic, hand-glued collections of photographs. The artist’s work for #TFWGucci is nostalgic, winsome, and abstract. Interpreting the image, John Trulli finds a commentary on waiting for friends to go out one night. - Text by Helen Holmes.

John Trulli, AKA, takes on the well known-structure of the “guy she says I shouldn’t worry about” meme with the addition of a Gucci Le Marché des Merveilles timepiece. It’s a classic two-panel joke, with a mundane watch set against Gucci’s version. Trulli’s meme style is quirky and irreverent, tackling pop culture and everyday experiences in equal measure. All he has to do is add a line of text to the image and it becomes a viral vehicle. — Text by Kyle Chayka.

Limbs merge, torsos twist, flesh morphs and transforms – the work of Danish-born, New York-based artist Asger Carlsen reminds us that the human body is a very strange place. His signature black-and-white photographs portray a mundane scene interrupted by a bizarrely-distorted figure, with an underlying sense of comic absurdity. This is highlighted for #TFWGucci by the mischievous John Trulli, who brings a wry wit to Asger’s work to satirize the funhouse mirror of modern beauty standards. – Text by New Territories.
