The Different Strokes Different People collection derives from a conversation about Post-Impressionist Painter Vincent Van Gogh and Visual Artist Gerhard Richter. The thought of how the painted brush strokes feels instead of the taboo of being touched, the fear of smudging the canvas when fresh, and the dreaded bewilderment when touching a dry canvas, a minisule mark is left behind from our fingertips. So Smith/Grey moulded the painted brush stroke texture into wearable pieces.
This gives a whole new, yet literal, meaning of wearable art.
