Ten years ago, I shot and created one of the last official portraits of one of the most iconic fashion designers of all time - Karl Lagerfeld. This highly prestigious commission, from Jefferson Hack of Dazed Media and Chanel, called for a limited edition of 200 3D lenticulars, handmade by me, for their celebrated AnOther magazine cover, to mark its 15th anniversary. Five large-format glass lenticular copies were also produced. Of the large-format copies, one was for the offices of Dazed Media, one for Chanel to gift to Karl for his office, a third for Karl himself, who, upon receiving the gift, immediately ordered a second copy for his home, and two for me. The cover is believed to be the first-ever 3D cover for a leading fashion magazine. Additionally, holograms were also created, including Lightgate digital hologram miniatures and a DI-HO style holographic stereogram miniature. The latter was coated in 24k gold and has been exhibited in numerous shows. For the full story, please find a PDF on my page here: https://www.rob-munday.com/biography

It is not possible to appreciate the sculptural and luminous quality of Rob's work in two dimensions, such as on this website page or in an exhibition catalogue. It is highly recommended that you view the work in person.
