Bart Hess

Bart Hess (1984) is a Dutch designer that creaters surrealistic work. He explores several fields combining materials in studies, animation and photography.
If you know Barts work you will immediately recognize his work. He has a very personal and reconazible signature.

With his fascination for the human body and the manipulation of it, Hess pushes the boundaries of the textile design profession: his designs transcend the craft, as Hess chooses to extend them via other media such as film, photography and animation. His futuristic materials and textures blur the boundary between textile and skin, human and new species.

With his work Hess has obtained an independent position in the world of fashion, design and art. His list of international collaborations and clients include prestigious names such as Lady Gaga, Lucy McRae, Palais de Tokyo and Nick Knight.

Bart Hess has worked several times with Iris Van Herpen, one of my favorite designers to create textiles for her fashion-collections. These textiles clearly show the vast amount of handcraft.
