ARTWORK
“Distortion & Reverb” floral print 01 Ocean Blue
ESC's original floral print features flowers encountered and photographed in everyday Tokyo, arranged like musical elements. The floral assemblage was then boldly deformed and thematically coloured to embody the concept of "distorted and reverberating sound." The artwork was created by British artist Weirdcore, renowned for his mesmerizing visuals for some of the world’s most admired musicians. In this unique creation, he transforms the floral composition into a contemporary piece that evokes musical landscapes.
Artwork 01 draws parallels between emotionally nuanced flowers and the sound of a resonating vocal, using six colours (printing plates) inspired by the hues of the Mediterranean ocean.

CARE GUIDE
The six-colour pigment dye is handcrafted by the dyeing artisan, so there is some unevenness in the colour. Due to the characteristics of pigment dyeing, changes in texture and colour fading due to friction may occur over time. Use and store in dry conditions as prolonged exposure to moisture and high temperatures may cause discolouration, colour migration, and odours. If dry dust or sand stains adhere, remove them with a dry cloth or soft brush. For water-soluble stains, wash gently by hand in ambient-temperature water and always dry in its original shape before use. Never use alkaline agents, bleach, fabric softeners, or brighteners.
