JIM LAMBIE
FOR LA FETICHE
COLLECTION SS19

Artist JIM LAMBIE takes us on a tour of his studio, wearing some of his favourite LA FETICHE pieces.

LAMBIE collaborated with LA FETICHE in the making of our SS19 collection.

Taking inspiration from psychedelic Jazz musician Sun Ra, we created intarsia colour blocked knits and printed texts on cotton panels for Scottish Trench coats, bags & T-shirts.

Jim Lambie’s (b. 1964, Glasgow, Scotland) practice evolves from a response to the psychology of space and colour and is influenced by movements in art and the history of place.

Sourcing his material directly from the modern world, Lambie references popular culture, often drawing his subject matter from music and iconic figures. He makes use of everyday objects and materials – both as reference points and as original objects, transforming them into new sculptural forms, re-energising them and giving them with an alternative function.

Encapsulating ideologies in art history, and arbitrated by cultural deities, Lambie allows himself to work liberally and outside the constraints of a single medium or dimension.
