winterSALON/2014 Review: special event with Painted

Golden Joinery for winterSALON/2014 an event by Painted (Margreet Sweerts & Saskia van Drimmelen) was held at the Posthoornkerk (2-2-2014)
 
Painted believes in the pleasure and strength of designing in collaboration and wishes to revive almost forgotten crafts, a tribute to delicate beauty.
Different handwritings unite in a personal way of developing clothes, giving each piece its own life being designed in close dialogue with the person who will wear it.
Painted Series consists of pieces made either as couture in
‘pieces uniques’ or in small series where each garment still has its own features: Painted-à-Porter.
The garments are part of an ever-growing series, like a band’s repertoire.
Unrestricted by time, place or seasons, Painted presents in its own rhythm and by invitation. A story in garments

About: Painted is a collective led by Saskia van Drimmelen and Margreet Sweerts. We work together with masters in nearly forgotten crafts like needlepoint lace from Bulgaria and beadwork of the Assiniboine tribe from Northern America. By sharing knowledge and the joy of making, traditional techniques breathe new life.
