Celebrating art, eyewear and women
Oliver Goldsmith Sunglasses have presented a collection of their unique sunglass designs, alongside works by Susie Stone, the award-winning designer, couturier and artist at a special evening event in London on 31st March. Many of the sunglasses featured at the event at the Eames Fine Art Gallery are portrayed in the artist’s work. Susie and Goldsmith have a mutual affection for personal style and wanted to remind women of how remarkable they are – in a unique way.
‘How my subjects put clothes and accessories together sets the mood of the painting. I want people to question their own sense of style and individuality; what you wear every day not only affects how the world views you but is also an incredibly powerful tool for how you feel about yourself.’ Susie Stone
Stone’s exhibition of new paintings and silkscreen prints entitled ‘Ensemble’ is on show at Eames Gallery, Bermondsey (London, UK) until 17th April 2022.
About Oliver Goldsmith Sunglasses – Established in 1926, Oliver Goldsmith describes the iconic brand as the originator of fashion eyewear; they have produced some of the most famous eyewear in the world, dressing the faces of style icons such as Audrey Hepburn, Princess Grace, Michael Caine and many more.
Susie’s background in fashion and design has a huge influence on her work. The strength, individuality and style of women is also a constant source of inspiration, and she strives to find the line between fashion and art, seeing how the clothes we wear everyday can be elevated into something more powerful, emotional or abstract. Colour and accessories play a crucial part in this process and devising interesting colour combinations are one of the most distinctive features of her work.
