This week's top Butt Magazine projects, carefully handpicked by Visie's expert curators, showcase the best in style and innovation.
Project Butt Magazine · Mahmood
In this evocative music industry editorial for Butt Magazine, photographer Luke Abby captures singer Mahmood in a series of intimate, stripped-back portraits that masterfully blur the lines between candid lifestyle photography and high-concept portraiture. The project leans into a raw, unfiltered aesthetic, utilizing natural light to accentuate the textures of the artist's environment and the subtle, human details of his expression. By framing Mahmood within the confines of minimalist bathrooms, cedar saunas, and sparse living spaces, Abby crafts a visual narrative that feels both voyeuristic and deeply composed. The editorial technique oscillates between the soft warmth of natural light and the dramatic intensity of low-key, chiaroscuro-inspired lighting, which transforms simple props like a heart-shaped lollipop or a smoking cigarette into sharp, symbolic artifacts. This cinematic approach captures the artist in a state of quiet vulnerability, maintaining a consistent, moody focus throughout the series. Whether he is lounging in a bubble-filled tub or reclining in a modern, glass-walled shower, the images feel tethered to a specific, tactile reality. By resisting the urge for heavy artifice, the collaboration relies on the strength of the subject's gaze and the precision of the framing to tell a story of modern masculinity that is as playful as it is profound, ultimately cementing a striking visual identity for the subject within the broader context of contemporary music and entertainment media.
Project Butt Magazine · Oh My God! The Pope's Tailor
Butt Magazine explores the portraiture of the everyday and the eccentric in this editorial feature, Oh My God! The Pope's Tailor. Through a series of tight-cropped frames, the project leans into a nostalgic aesthetic, capturing subjects in public squares under warm, natural light. Photographer Jo Fetto documents the series with a playful tone, utilising the interplay between detailed portraiture and blurred, classical urban backgrounds to build a distinct visual narrative.
