Ludovica Amati's LA13 Capsule: T-Shirts as Artistic Canvases

Designer Ludovica Amati launches LA13, a capsule collection of t-shirts presented as art objects. The t-shirts, packaged in special boxes designed by Nicola Bramante and bound by Turin artisans, feature embroideries and prints inspired by Hieronymus Bosch's visions, Arthur Rimbaud's verses, Frida Kahlo, Mayakovsky, Virginia Woolf, and William Blake. The project explores five truths leading to love, eternity, and knowledge. Amati collaborated with Turin gallerist Guido Costa and actress-director Asia Argento, who contributed introductory texts. The collection is divided into three thematic boxes, described as an inner journey among 'masters of disorder' blending reality and fantasy. Costa notes the deliberate inversion of values, using fashion as a privileged communication form. The article was published on Artribune Magazine #34 by Alessio de' Navasques.
