31 Letters from August (Blue) - 100% Twill Silk Scarf

Series of only 100 wearable art prints - when they’re gone, they’re gone!

This 100% twill silk scarf features illustrations from the 31 Letters from August series.

I often find myself anxious that I will forget all the little quirks and stories in everyday life. They are not full narratives, they are only the first step in possible adventures. If you look after these little spirits, then they can spark epic stories which will look after you in return. In many ways I find this my duty as an artist, and as a fellow at Schoppingen Kunsteldorf, Germany, I took the time to illustrate one dropped initial letter for each day of August, referencing the Medieval visual style and images I had seen during my visit in the idyllic countryside village. I have divided these into two scarves, one yellow, and one blue.

I made this scarf with fine Twill silk because of its matt, highly textured surface, which allows it to take the high levels of detail from this illustration.

  I’ve always seen clothing as an opportunity for a kind of 3D canvas. In particular the surface of the silk scarf presents so much opportunity for artists; unlike gallery paining or prints, these wearable surfaces are mobile and adorn any space you enter. The customer is the curator, and the work alters their visual identity. I’m so honoured when I see someone selecting my work to wear.

  Back in 2016 the studio I co-founded, The Bite Back Movement, was commissioned to make an Art Product range for Seoul Museum of Art (SeMA). I was so excited to transform some of my much larger installation artworks into limited edition scarves, and we focused on creating the highest quality scarves with 100% silk, hand-rolled hems and editions of only 100. We sold-out after 2 days and I’ve been passionate about the medium ever since.
