KIDULT X HERMES T-SHIRT GIVEAWAY LONDON
French graffiti artist Kidult is best known for his radical and aggressive bombing technique that screams anarchy. Unlike aggravated teens that scribble away at the back of school buses or write on subway walls, the Kid swaps his marker for a fire extinguisher filled with paint and targets high end fashion chains.
His objective is clear, to inject a bold message into the soulless commercialized society that’s fulled by greed, trends, glamor and money. In an era where social problems, unjust and poverty are shadowed by capitalist propaganda and the need to miscellaneously spend, Kidults art screams the contrary, giving those mainstream driven numb skulls something to think about- and it’s kind of hard not to when the message is sprayed over your god mothers favorite Hermès store (the print’s so bold her chiwawa might even start politicking).

Having put the likes of Kenzo, MOCA and Supreme in his resume, Kidult will be visiting the Hermès store on London’s Bond Street this Saturday the 7th. We can’t guarantee he won’t redecorate the store with Kidultlism but he will be giving out free Kidult x Hermès t-shirts to the public. Kidult did a similar stint outside Parisian trendy boutique store Colette not long ago; the Colette logo received a Kidult rework and joined his BRANDalizing t-shirt collection.
The free giveaway starts at 3pm and will end at 3:30pm. Get involved if you’re a collector freak as I’m starting to see a reoccurring pattern; fuck up store, take photo, edit brand logo to his own means, give free garms in front of another store branch, (go home and laugh at destruction).
It’s about time someone went for TOPMAN, and no not you protestesting looters again.
