Lady Pink x Weatherman: A New Umbrella Designed By Graffiti Pioneer
When it comes to trend-setting fashion accessories, umbrellas are often overlooked. However, weāre thrilled to drop an umbrella that is bound to change the way we look at this rainy-day essential with our new Limited Edition Stick Umbrella designed by graffiti legend, Lady Pink. This collaboration has brought art and practicality together in a way that will make you excited for any storm.
Lady Pink: A Pioneer of Graffiti
Lady Pinkās story is one of perseverance, artistry, and significance. The cult figure and artist, known for her commanding presence and bold, boundary-pushing pieces, has left an indelible mark on the urban landscape and the wider art community alike.
Born as Sandra Fabara in Ambato, Ecuador, Lady Pink moved to New York City with her family as a young girl, eventually finding solace and creative expression in the city's bustling street art scene. Initially just a teenager experimenting with graffiti, Lady Pink quickly rose to become an iconic figure in the art world and one of the leading women in the male-dominated street art scene of the 80s.
Her distinctive style combines colorful, bold lettering with surreal, intricate imagery and her pieces are often known for highlighting messages of social injustice while celebrating her Latina roots.
Over the years, her art has been commissioned by the likes of Nike, Coca-Cola, and Levi's. She has also had exhibitions and installations in renowned institutions including the Whitney Museum of American Art and the Brooklyn Museum. Despite facing obstacles such as discrimination and a lack of recognition, Lady Pink persevered and continued to create art that resonates to this day.
Today, she continues to create masterpieces on canvas while also leading mural workshops and lectures for young students and aspiring artists.
