It is a truism of contemporary culture that you are what you wear. Or what you drive. Or where you live. Or how you decorate your body or style your hair. There are certain people, however, who know the importance of such a cultural condition, and who take it to a courageous and self-actualizing extreme. These individuals are shameless about self-expression; they are brave enough to paint on a canvas all their own, without precedent or proportion. They are style astronauts. They are the Kustomizers. Kustom is about people who live and breathe and maximize the concept of ownership. From customized hot rods to plastic surgery in extremis, stadium daredevils to fashion mavericks, photographer Dewey Nicks captures the art and poetry of obsession. The results are humorous, startling, grotesque, and glorious-sometimes all at once. Kustom provides a vivid insight into those who have the courage and abandon to go beyond the standards of mass production, beyond the inhibitions of tradition and conformity. Designed by lauded fashion imagemaker Douglas Lloyd, Kustom is a brilliant odyssey into the world of personal aesthetics.
