Big Shopper by De Heem | Striped

For this big shopper we have re-used plastic bottles ..., and recycled another element from the past: the works from known and lesser-known artists that all left us with
great riches to enjoy for eternity.

In art, color is the essential ingredient. It’s the balance of specific colors which make every painting unique and thus, connects to our senses. Your reusable shopper is inspired by a flower still-life painted by the Dutch painter Jan Davidsz. De Heem in 1670.

The pattern design reveals the color palette behind this expressive bouquet of the most exotic and colorful flowers, together with the butterfly and the snail depicted on the original, all symbolics to remind us how limited one’s time on earth was.
