Jean-Baptiste Mondino - Strat® with gold, silver

Jean-Baptiste Mondino – Jouer À Genoux / On My Knees I Pray A Fender® Stratocaster® adorned with gold and silver religious medals. Jean-Baptiste Mondino is a passionate guitar fan and likens playing one to a religious experience. Equal parts outrageous and innovate, Paris-based artist Jean-Baptiste Mondino began his career as a DJ in London in the 1970s. He then devoted himself to photography and directing, creating videos for the likes of Madonna and Björk. Mondino's fashion photography has generated the most controversy however, by eschewing traditionally beautifying poses in favour of extreme images aided by digital manipulation. His surreal, colour-saturated images have been used for campaigns for Calvin Klein, Jean-Paul Gaultier and Giorgio Armani. To benefit: Maggie's Cancer Caring Centres
