Sealed with a Kiss
As the rosy-hued month of February slipped into the tempestuous month of March, an art project took hold. Draw upon what you know, the artist is always told. Here the inspiration is two-fold: the punchy logo of fashion designer Diane von Furstenberg, and the hand-stitched vivid embellishment of a piece of traditional woman's clothing from the village of Dobra Niva, Slovakia. The results? A collision of two worlds where old-world creative expression melds with the bold and cheeky styling of contemporary culture.
