This unique ‘Garment Graffiti’ is the work of London-based artist Thomas Voorn, who creates artistic urban signs in public places using pieces of clothing collaged together to form the lettering of the message.
His work appears in the most obvious spots and also in the most unexpected places--anywhere from brick walls to grassy fields.
His latest project is ‘A Designers Poem’ for B Store in London which is on display until January. With a mix of some of the fashion brand names that are sold at B Store, Voorn created the slogan ‘COSMIC CHRISTIAN CEREMONY,’ which references designers Cosmic Wonder Light Source, Hans Christian Madsen and Opening Ceremony.
