Project 4: The Bohemian Bag Series

We have sourced two bags that are perfect for artistic enhancement:

  • The Cream Knit Bag: This gorgeous bag features a beautiful, intricate diamond-knit pattern with a soft, cream-colored background. We are looking for a textile artist to reimagine this piece; perhaps by adding custom detailing, unique yarn work, embroidery, or hardware to play up its rich texture.

  • The Green Corduroy Messenger: This sturdy, rich green messenger bag is a perfect canvas. We are seeking an artist to lean into its utilitarian vibe, perhaps through hand-painted motifs, custom patches, or structural additions to create a functional, one-of-a-kind piece of art.
