Stephen Wilson Studio Petite Chanel Butterfly Swarm 5"x12"

The butterfly monograms are the staple pieces to any of my installations and they are the ones that started it all! I am always creating new swarms in different configurations with unique background stitching for the boxes. The pieces start with a background created from luxury boxes and bags that are deconstructed. The butterflies are all embroidered in my studio and are created for each piece. They are available in any size configuration as well as any style of box and there are always new variants being added.

About the artist :

Stephen Wilson expertly crafts extraordinary and timeless designs using sustainable materials. Each art piece embarks on a journey, starting with an up-cycled luxury bag, box, silk scarf, or album. Wilson meticulously creates a bespoke embroidery design, delicately intertwining every stitch by hand. Once the design, colors, and elements are meticulously selected, the artistic process advances to the assembling stage. The boxes and bags undergo a mesmerizing transformation, metamorphosing into captivating canvases for Wilson's creations. The embroidery is seamlessly integrated into the chosen medium, unveiling a captivating texture that breathes life into the artwork. Appliqués, patches, and butterflies are individually stitched out, meticulously crafted, and delicately placed on each piece, culminating in a truly distinctive and unparalleled masterpiece. Finally, each artwork is beautifully presented, encased in an acrylic frame, ready to enchant all who behold it.
