The Rights of Passage clothing collection by OBEYEBO is a bold
exploration of transformation, energy, and the raw power of abstract expression. Inspired by a
monumental painting created by Philip Slagter in the 1980s, this collection captures the spirit of
“gestural abstraction,” a term used by critics to describe Slagter's work during this period. The
painting, a massive 144” x 136” acrylic on tarpaper mounted on wood, was created in Los Angeles and
marks a significant phase in Slagter's evolution as an artist. Rights of Passage is an intense, chaotic, and deeply expressive work that
encapsulates the essence of transition and transformation. The painting is dominated by swirling,
intertwining forms and bold, aggressive brushstrokes, primarily in red, black, and white. These
elements create a sense of movement and energy, as if the canvas itself is alive with the forces of
change. The red, sweeping gestures across the canvas evoke feelings of urgency and intensity, suggesting a
rite of passage—a pivotal moment of change or initiation. Beneath these bold strokes, intricate
patterns and shapes in black and white emerge, creating a layered, almost hidden narrative that
invites deeper reflection. The contrasts between the aggressive red lines and the more subtle
background forms represent the tension and complexity of personal growth and change. Slagter's use of tarpaper as a surface adds a rough, textured quality to the work, reinforcing the
idea of art as a tactile, physical process. The painting challenges the viewer to engage with it not
just visually, but physically, evoking the visceral experience of passing through critical stages of
life. When you wear the Rights of Passage collection by OBEYEBO, you're
embracing the intensity and complexity of life's pivotal moments. This collection allows you to
carry with you the raw, expressive energy that Slagter captured in his painting, making your
clothing a reflection of the transformative power of abstract art. The Rights of Passage collection is perfect for those who are navigating their own
rites of passage and want to express their journey through bold, powerful fashion choices. Whether
you're stepping into a new phase of life or simply want to make a statement, this collection ensures
that your clothing is more than just fabric—it's a symbol of growth, change, and the energy that
drives us forward.
