Absolut Vodka: Outrageous

This is a vision of outrageous freedom from David La Chapelle. David chose to shoot on a beach in order to emphasis the sense of coming from the darkness into the light. From there every element that is coming out of the iconic ABSOLUT bottle-shaped closet contributes to that sense outrageousness and freedom. All the people are representative of the LGBT community and contribute emotionally to the sense of joy and celebration of the 30 year anniversary of ABSOLUT's involvement with the community. Each element does not neccesarily "mean" something or "symbolize" something - each contributes to the whole. And each is very uniquely David - outrageous.
