READY TO WAR, a KALTBLUT exclusive fashion editorial exploring the artist as a symbolic soldier navigating criticism, isolation, conviction, and resilience. Photography and editing by Camille Kauffer. Art direction and styling by Dav Ebonola. Hair by Pénélope Prulhiere. Makeup by Marie-Lise Latour. The project features Ricky Bishop, a French underground artist whose evolving musical identity is deeply shaped by his roots, notably by New Bouyon.
His presence brings a strong cultural and contemporary dimension to the editorial, reinforcing its raw energy, tension, and sense of resistance. Through fashion imagery, READY TO WAR reflects on the creative world as a battlefield — a space where belief, vulnerability, and determination constantly confront doubt and adversity.
