My print designs for “Ngadi Smart X Louis Philippe de Gagoue”, the first print design collaboration for @vliscoandco.
The theme for this collaborative project with Vlisco&Co Côte d’Ivoire was constructed around showcasing a modern take on the traditional Ivorian bronze industry. Ivorian bronze sculptures and figurines have many elements of nature in them, and often speak of a tribe’s spirituality. In Ivory Coast, The Senufo and Akan tribe are the main tribes that use bronze for their ornaments. The Senufo are animinists, which is the belief that objects, places and creatures all possess a distinct spiritual essence. The Akan tribe, on the other hand, will create bronze gold weights depicting humans (warriors, medicine-men, hunters…), animals (birds, crocodiles, antelopes), flora (peanuts, oil palm flowers, calabashes), artefacts (drums, sandals, cannons) and numerous other figurative and geometric motifs. I based the patterns in my designs around these themes of nature, sometimes directly incorporating traditional motifs into them.
I decided to play with colour to give the patterns the modern twist the project needed, taking inspiration from Japanese contemporary artist Takashi Murakami’s work which uses bright, pop art colours and busy patterns.
