The sensuos, powerful, fascinating social tattos by Kim Joon…
“I am interested in tattoo as a metaphor for hidden desire or a kind of compulsion engraved into human consciousness. I see the skin, or in some cases the monitor, as an extension of a canvas. My earlier tattoo paintings were 3 dimensional canvases in the form of lumps of flesh or parts of a body, such as a muscular arm. Tattoos can reflect individual and collective reality or displaced desire. ”

LOBSTER it’s turning 3. Only few years have passed, and it has already become one of the most interesting brands in the italian streetwear scene…
“LOBSTER was actually born by chance. Two partners, Jeppy and Sale, owned MARKER SHOP, a street shop and the symbol of underground culture in their town. They decided to start producing some tees to be sold in the shop. Jeppy was inspired by a tshirt of his with a lobster on the front and suggested the name …. straight away, Sale started working on a logo design. The first and only design captured the essence of what the brand would be about…and LOBSTER was born. Sale’s talent for illustration and his awareness of trends meant the designs kept coming, got noticed and above all people were buying them.
The philosophy behind the brand, even though born by chance, is clear; “make what we like, what we would wear, and collaborate with who we respect”. The result is something that reflects LOBSTER’s origins; the world of graffiti, of skateboarding, of hip hop and hard core music. Collaboration with street artists, photographers, magazines and record labels, has been fundamental in sealing a friendship born years ago in the train yards and at concerts between like minded people.”
Here are some pics from the FW collection…
