Presented in a flip-book style, Man Unraveling consists of twenty-eight painted-on photographic images by Creative Growth artist Alice Wong.
Wong's colorful palette adorns a group of photographs of the Italian fashion designer Valentino as he works at his desk.
Identified only by the book's title, Valentino's image gradually evolves into greater abstraction with the paintings' general sequence.
With colored edges and a textured softcover with flaps, this interactive book is a vivid journey into Alice Wong's imaginative world.
