An intimate moment of togetherness between mother and child, SoKo is pictured with her son at home. “It’s time to slow down and cherish your loved ones. It’s time to build forts out of sheets and pillows and reclaim your inner child. It’s time to create a magical place to feel safe and let your imagination go wild and free. It’s time to sing books instead of reading them. But mostly, it’s time to be kind to yourself.” Kindness, creativity and closeness—even for those who are ...physically

I like to revisit memories of myself in the sea.” The creativeness of the mind as a powerful tool for positivity and comfort is her message for the Gucci Community.

James Righton is part of a lineup of artists and talents to express a message of empathy, kindness and well-being through creativity.
