A ‘creative session’ is how the multidisciplinary French artist and designer Ronan Bouroullec describes his collaboration with Homme Plissé Issey Miyake, revealed at the Japanese brand’s show this past January in Paris. As the colour-soaked collection, which features Bouroullec’s expressive felt-tip drawings as prints, arrives in stores this week, Wallpaper* revisits a conversation with the artist held backstage at the Palais de Tokyo show.
The curving white walls of Paris’ Palais de Tokyo were hung with a series of garments adorned with the instinctive, abstract drawings of Ronan Bouroullec, the multidisciplinary designer and artist who creates these works as part of his daily practice (his tool is a set of Japanese felt-tip pens).
