Visual artist Felipe Pantone is launching his first-ever publication this month. Co-authored with photographer Omar Quiñones, the concept art book follows an abstract conversation between the two artists through the use of images. The book creates new meaning for form and feeling with the power of visuals and figurative elements by having Pantone pose a question with the use of his graffiti and kinetic-style imagery, from which Quiñones responds to with a photograph. Titled Race Flag, the front cover aptly features a small race flag emoji over a plain white background to follow suit with the book’s theme of using imagery over words.

Limited to 500 copies, Race Flag releases February 22 at THE GRIFTERS with each edition signed and numbered by both artists. In the meantime, watch a preview of the book with Felipe Pantone and Omar Quiñones below.
