Icon - Kate

Depicting strong powerful women across two centuries, the Bisaillon Brothers newest collection is this first of its kind release for the iconic pop art duo. Inspired in Haute Couture and high-end fashion publications, the Icon series, part of the Pop Collection, is truly a celebration of strong women with different polychromatic original artworks.

Fashion magazines, which have celebrated freedom in all forms supporting movements and revolutions that would shatter cultural myths of society, serve as a blank canvas for the New York artists, who take in the inspiration to create the mix media originals. In "Icon - Kate" the brothers depict the British model, an iconic figure in the early 1990’s. “It’s kind of rebellious to be yourself.” - Kate Moss

Inspired in high-end fashion publications, the headline and the publication month and price were strategically placed to resemble the famous glamourous magazines. The attention to detail paired with the bright colours and the pop art themes elevate the artwork to statement pieces in any setting. The strategic placement of black and white in certain areas make the colours pop, bringing the artwork to another dimension.

The Pop Collection is an intermediary between iconic imagery and culture and the brother’s roots with the abstract and thematic elements. This beautiful fusion utilizes the world around us in the form of iconic people we love or brands that enhance our life experience to create breathtaking pieces. Each piece has a red code distinctly defining the brother’s trademark but also hitting at the increasing commercialisation of most things. Part signature, part emblem, part symbol, the red code has become a signature for the artists alongside their unique trinary code that, once decoded, reveals a word specific to each piece.
