paper magazine‘s march 2015 fashion editorial takes a journey to salvation mountain, the monumental work by artist leonard knight. located in the lower desert of southern california, the site has been intricately painted in a spectrum of vibrant hues that canvas designs and motifs made of local adobe clay. the project promotes the reoccurring theme of ‘love’ throughout, with flowers, trees, hearts, suns, birds, and other fascinating objects aiming to serve a powerful message of peace.
