Skechers has collaborated with Los Angeles-based visual artist, muralist, and designer Jen Stark to launch the Visual Artist Series, which will include Stark’s bright drip patterns on a variety of women’s styles.
The new Skechers x Jen Stark capsule kicks off the brand’s Visual Artist Series, which will feature designs of different artists on Skechers items throughout the year.
The line, which consists of three distinct styles, is currently available on the brand’s website, at Skechers retail stores, and through prominent partners in the US and select other markets.
“Through our new Visual Artist Series, we offer consumers unique wearable art that can transform our product in the way that only art can – and Jen Stark’s the perfect visionary to introduce this new collection,” said Michael Greenberg, president of Skechers.
“Her patterns come to life in everything she creates. As an LA local, she’s visited our office several times to contribute to the execution of this collaboration – helping to create these vibrant, captivating styles.”
Stark is known for her paper sculptures, although she has also worked in wood, paint, mirrors, metal, and interactive installations. Her work can be found in the Smithsonian American Art Museum, the West Collection, and MOCA Miami, among other places. She has appeared in major exhibitions in New York, Los Angeles, Miami, Chicago, Thailand, and Canada.
