Given free reign to express herself, her elaborate and whimsical creations open a window into a fantasy world.

Rankin has captured Ayami's highly conceptual work, realising her visions in a glistening dreamscape. Together Rankin and Ayami Nishimura have produced a stunning book that showcases two incredibly talented artists at their absolute best.Rankin made his name as a photographer, director, and publisher in 1991, when he and his business partner, Jefferson Hack, started the now-cult fashion magazine Dazed & Confused. Since then, he's photographed everyone from U2 to Gordon Brown, shot covers for magazines all over the world, and shot ad campaigns for some of the world's most well-known businesses. He has lately created a biannual magazine and is routinely commissioned as a director. Rankin has over 30 books to his credit, has participated in international exhibitions, and has lately launched galleries in London and Los Angeles.
