Streetwear label Supreme worked alongside American photographer Nan Goldin in its latest Artist Series collection for Spring/Summer 2018. Goldin's work dials deep into her focus on human relationships and the vulnerability and fragile concept it exudes. She currently resides in both New York and Berlin, expressing her work through slideshows and paintings. Her vivid work in the 80s captured the friendship dynamic of her own friend groups -- comprised of photographs of drag queens, domestic abuse, heroin addiction and hedonistic parties.
The Supreme x Nan Goldin collection is comprised of a hooded sweatshirt, a coach jacket, three t-shirts and three skateboard decks. The adorning photographs used on the garments are drawn directly from her book 'The Ballad of Secual Dependency.'
