“A” is for amazing, alienesque and astonishing. Only superlatives can be used to describe MIKAs new face Gustav. Discovered at a festival at the end of an intense day trancing to music, tired and sweaty Gustav was spotted by a scout from his mother agency when he was headed for a bit of a lie down to regenerate for the evening’s entertainment. Yes, he’s really new, with only a shoot for Contributor magazine to his credit thus far. An artist (he paints, sings, and plays instruments), Gustav is also a self described ‘language fanatic’ who speaks Swedish, English, Spanish, a little French, and we suspect some Elvish. As yet unsigned outside of Sweden, we cannot wait to see what this boy gets up to once he hits the major markets.
Totally floored by his presence on the editorial. He and Vanessa compliments each other so so so well. I'm actually breathless scrolling through the pictures.
