LOVEGOD

FORTNUM & MASON x GONE ROGUE

 

Love.

The Ancient Greeks believed there were eight types. Songwriters swear it's In The Air and All You Need.

Romantic or platonic, utterly unconditional or still a work-in-progress, love is love is love – and the world needs a whole lot more of it. 

And so, to celebrate our new collection of ‘graffiti hearts’ packaging – and inspired by our decree to Unleash The Love this Valentine’s Day – we've partnered with renowned curator Kim Shaylor and her online gallery, GONE ROGUE, to commission six street artists to fill our windows with works inspired by what love looks like to them.

Whats this piece about?

"In the canvas of existence, love is the graffiti that transcends cultures, a sacred art drawn by gods and goddesses, intertwining threads of deity’s whispers, creating a masterpiece of mindfulness in the tapestry of our shared human experience.
In the vibrant mosaic of modern culture, my creation reimagines deities arising from urban street environments, to bring us messages of mindful transformation, blending the ancient with the contemporary."
