adidas Originals Work of Art; Sydney

If you like me think sneakers are a work of art, then adidas Originals are running a campaign through May just for you.  Five of Australia’s best emerging artists have been selected to create work for a very special competition which could see you winning some amazing unique, adidas inspired artwork.

Through May each piece will travel across Australia to key adidas Originals stores: 
Cavill Ave QLD, 
Pitt St & QV Building NSW, 
Chadstone VIC 
and Rundle Mall SA. 

And if you make a purchase at one of these stores while the competition is on, you will enter the draw to win the one-off pieces!  Examples of the some of the amazing art is below with some info on the artists - check it out!


BRIDGE STEHLI
Drawing inspiration from her origins in Graffiti art, Stehli’s works embrace classical and contemporary culture by taking inspiration from popular iconography present in animated films, cartoons, comic books, classic literature and childhood picture books.


HANA SHIMADA
Finding joy in accessible formats such as T-shirts, record sleeves and flyers, Shimada’s work regularly adorns these democratic applications. 




JACOB ROLFE
Jacob Rolfe is a visual artist from Melbourne whose practice is often associated with a dark humour and intense metaphor. Working in both small and large scale, his works offer an essence of truth and fragility amongst eccentric fantasy.




JAMES JIRAT PATRADOON
James Jirat Patradoon's frantic images are inspired by hyper-masculine mythologies of biker gangs, rock stars, professional wrestlers, secret societies, and Facebook, offering an irreverent take on the stoic nature of macho pop culture.
