Artist draws part of his strength from the Visual Artists

Surrounded by artists of all kinds, they turn to all artistic practices, all aesthetic, poetic or fanciful representations likely to infuse shapes and volumes, colors and materials into their clothing models.

Architecture, drawing, engraving, sculpture, ceramics, glasswork, all creative performances nourish the potential transformation of an original work into unique feminine clothing.

No limits to the creative process, no limits to the use of techniques and supports either. The Plastic Arts encompass all the plastic artists, all the plasticians of contemporary art.

 From the moment the artist interprets the joys and questions of the world, a new interpretation could emerge from a tailoring workshop. Since the modeling of an object, the apprehension of space, the emergence of so-called “conceptual” practices, or the creation of ephemeral works sharpen

the mind, thrill the hearts, ARTIST is inspired to dress women.

 Antoine PETEL, visual artist for the next ARTIST collection.

The approach of many visual artists today is to experiment, to think outside the box and often to take the opposite view of what preceded them, their only freedom as a constraint.

Outside the circuit, free electrons, they live in correlation with their ideas. Put stars in people’s eyes, generate attraction, provoke curiosity. This quality of work resembles that of Brigitte and François, the inventive co-founders of ARTIST.

So much know-how which must of course be supplemented by relentless, daily work, knowledge and mastery of the means:

• Elementary: assembly, disassembly, forced wear, various simple tools and products…
• Archaic: the imprint (human body, animal, plant, mineral, object, etc.), scratching, pricking, point, striker, etc.
• Ancient: natural pigment, sculpture and modeling, ironwork, weaving, braiding, etc.
• Classics: drawing, painting, sculpture, engraving, etc.
• Modern: photography, cinema, image collage, printing, etc.
• Contemporary: installations, body art, media, video, holography, etc.…

The day after March 8, ARTIST continues its defense of women's rights around the world.
