As we close the chapter on 2024, F Word presents Bakemono—a hauntingly beautiful editorial that explores the ethereal realm of transformation. Rooted in the Japanese word meaning "thing that transforms," Bakemono embodies the spirit of shape-shifting entities, creatures of legend who blur the line between reality and illusion.
In this editorial, we invite you to step into a world where identity is fluid, beauty is enigmatic, and transformation is inevitable.
