The Stolen In France
clothing collection by OBEYEBO is a narrative of mystery, loss, and the enduring
power of art.
Inspired by a painting created by Philip Slagter in the late 1980s, this collection is imbued with
the story of a piece of art that was meant to be shared with the world, but instead, was lost to it.
Measuring 72” x 40” and painted in acrylic on canvas, this artwork was entrusted to an art
consultant who took it to Paris to promote Slagter's work—only to disappear, taking the painting
with her. The piece was never recovered, and its whereabouts remain unknown, leaving behind a tale
of intrigue that now finds new life in fashion. Stolen In France is a visually complex and abstract composition that captures the
viewer's attention with its bold use of color and form. The painting is dominated by dark, swirling
shapes contrasted with bright, vibrant elements in red, yellow, and blue. The forms seem to float
and overlap within the canvas, creating a sense of movement and tension, as if the painting itself
is caught in a moment of transition—perhaps a reflection of its own journey from creation to
disappearance. The central shapes in the artwork, reminiscent of eyes or lenses, seem to peer out from the canvas,
as if searching for something lost or stolen. The repeated circular motifs and angular lines suggest
both focus and fragmentation, evoking the disjointed narrative of the painting's fate. The chaotic,
almost frenetic energy of the composition mirrors the feelings of uncertainty and loss that Slagter
might have felt upon realizing the artwork was gone. The story behind the painting adds another layer of meaning to the abstract forms—each brushstroke,
color choice, and composition decision now carries the weight of the narrative of disappearance. The
painting's title, Stolen In France, encapsulates both the physical act of theft and
the emotional impact of losing something so deeply personal. When you wear the Stolen In France collection by OBEYEBO, you're
not just wearing clothing—you're carrying with you a piece of art history, a tale of loss, and a
reminder of the enduring power of creativity. This collection allows you to embody the story of a
painting that was meant to be shared with the world, but instead, became a part of the mystery that
surrounds it. The Stolen In France collection is perfect for those who are drawn to fashion that
tells a story, who appreciate the connection between art and the narratives that give it life.
Whether you're captivated by the bold, abstract designs or the intriguing story behind them, this
collection ensures that your clothing is more than just fabric—it's a canvas of emotion, history,
and artistic expression.
