Rondinone's images mutate the body ideals we usually find in fashion magazines. Through self-staging and digital styling, he explores the porous boundaries between reality and fantasy, drawing the body into a realm where it is no longer anchored in physical conditions, bound by given realities. A virtual body on the other side of the "analog" gender differences.
