Kanye West: YEEZY Season 6 Zine presents the sixth collection of Kanye West’s YEEZY line of footwear, apparel and accessories. Like West’s past zines, this newest edition boldly presents Jackie Nickerson’s atmospheric photographs of the objects without any text, creating an exclusively visual experience of the clothing line.
Members of the YEEZY cast, including Abella Danger, Hafiia Mira, Amina Blue and Chanel Postrel, are captured in and around West’s Calabasas design studio during the aftermath of the 2017 wildfires. The charred, ashen landscape of the Santa Monica Mountains echoes the subtle mineral palette of the collection, rendered in vivid detail.
Kanye West (born 1977) is a musician, artist, producer and designer. He has been named twice by Time magazine as one of the 100 most influential people in the world.
Jackie Nickerson (born 1960) is a conceptual documentary photographer. She has published a number of photobooks, including Farm (2002), Faith (2008) and Terrain (2013), and in 2008 she was awarded the AIB art prize. Nickerson’s work has been exhibited internationally at institutions including the National Gallery of Ireland in Dublin, the National Portrait Gallery in London and the Santa Barbara Museum of Art.

The sheer size of this deluxe (almost 11x17-inch) staple-bound collection zine sweeps the reader away to the desert, where a variety of female subjects are swathed in nude and grey clothing. The photographs, by Jackie Nickerson, are marked by a distinct bluish hue that adds to the mystery of a journey through an otherwise abandoned desert scape. Published by Steidl, this text-free volume of enigmatic full-bleed images effectively captures a vision of allure, juxtaposed against the ashes of the Santa Monica Mountains, post-wildfire. Nickerson documents the current Yeezy collection—from shoes to clothing to accessories—with extreme care and intimacy. For example, in her presentation of the new Yeezy sneaker release, above, Nickerson toys with light and form to entice the viewer to imagine the person behind the shadow. continue to blog
