Hungry Castle is a collaborative artistic movement based in Barcelona. Its members Dave Glass and Kill Cooper specialize in unique, 3D, larger-than-life public art. The clothes they create take inspiration from their public art and in turn their clothes finance their art efforts.
When funky art meets fashion it makes for some pretty rad collections of clothes. Bold and dramatic, the clothes are as unusual as their artwork.
Hungry Castle tries to make each art experience and immersive encounter for the audience. And how better to make your audience appreciate your art then to make them wear it? Clearly with these two, their imaginations are limitless.
Their latest exhibition ‘Lionel Richie’s Head is Not for Sale’ is on at now at Cosmo Galeria in Barcelona.
