Fall Fragrance: All Wrapped Up

Jenny van Sommers Repackages Scents From Marc Jacobs, Ralph Lauren and More

Still life photographer extraordinaire Jenny van Sommers (whose previous work includes campaigns for Prada, Jil Sander, Nike and Audi) joins forces with London set designer, illustrator and all-out creative wunderkind Gary Card (a regular contributor to T Magazine, Dazed & Confused and Vogue Hommes Japan) for today’s story—a tightly wound tribute to this fall’s fragrances. Playing with the alluring shapes and angles of each scent’s bottle, the duo transforms new releases such as Bang by Marc Jacobs, Prada’s Infusion d’Iris, Maison Martin Margiela’s Untitled, and the latest edition of Gaultier’s Classique Pour Femme into a tantalizing, mysterious series of packages, wrapped by Card with characteristic flair in a variety of materials from foil to latex.

Nora Turato: pool7

London’s Institute of Contemporary Arts (ICA) presents pool7 – the first UK solo exhibition of Amsterdam-based artist Nora Turato. Investigating our complex relationship with language in the digital age, and the everyday forms we rely on for communication and self-expression, the exhibition incorporates Turato’s own writing amongst her found “pools” of language. Alongside works spanning writing, graphic design, video and sound, two live performance events join the programme on 5-6 June, channeling the defining currents of shared culture into a raw, stripped down performance, enacting pool7 on the level of her body and voice. Until 8 June 2025.
