<\/a><\/center><\/p>\nCelebrating the intersection between fashion, art, and music, Adidas and HVW8 announce the release of new artwork on Seeley and Adi Ease styles from two of the design world\u2019s most inspiring minds: Kevin Lyons and Jean Andr\u00e9.<\/p>\n
On Saturday, November 15, HVW8\u2032s West Hollywood gallery will kick off an international series of events celebrating these collaborations with appearances, artwork, a display of four new shoes from the two artists, and a special musical guest.<\/p>\n
Kevin Lyons
\n\u201cI wanted to create bright, colorful all-over prints. But making sure that they are still very wearable\u2026\u201d says Lyons, \u201cWith the Seeley, I wanted to experiment with a lot of the watercolor on paper backgrounds that I have been doing over the past couple of years. I played around with very saturated color mixing that created an analog, thermodynamic Predator-like pattern. I like the moody blue and rich tones that some of the saturation and bleeding make.\u201d<\/p>\n

\nFor his Adi Ease, Jean looked at an all-over pattern of more sensual shapes and the formal similarities between leaves and women\u2019s lips. Jean adds, \u201cI thought that everybody would expect me to draw girls on the shoes, but I don\u2019t really love figurative patterns. I did, however, want a thugged-out black and white pair that I\u2019d be proud to rock, so I added the girl inside as a signature last touch.”<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n
