The Artist of the collection #5
We collaborated with American visual artist Julie Wolfe to design the “Stories” collection
(available from Friday for pre-order).
Her work is based on her vision of the world. The degradation of the environment, language & human communications are at the source of his inspirations.
We perceive in his artistic universe, particularly his installations, a tug between binary energies: positive and negative, light and dark, optimism and pessimism...
She collects, piles up, amasses, assembles all ideas, objects, colors. She appropriates elements and recycles them with her sensitivity and aesthetics.
We were keenly attracted by all the forces that emanate from Julie Wolfe’s art.
It’s all these values, these feelings that touched us. When we contacted her, her positive and spontaneous response to our collaboration was a real delight!
In our own way, we have re-appropriated his work by once again recycling the elements, in order to design a collection that resembles us.
It is because of this journey that we called this new collection: “STORIES”

Superbe collection et ravie d’avoir reçue ma commande avec des vêtements colorés qui contrastent avec le temps gris et pluvieux. La coupe de la robe est très bien. Tout est raffiné, y compris l’emballage, et avec un masque assorti dont on espère pouvoir se débarrasser prochainement.
Bravo à toute l’équipe d’Artist.
