Icon Studio Designs By Lady Cox Wearable Art Collection
Design Concept The Factory’s collections are best known for its visual artworks, writings and wearable art. The aim is to resolve the previously contradictory conditions of dream and reality with pop culture references. Using contradictory, unnerving, illogical scenes with photographic precision, creating strange juxtaposing images from everyday objects. These everyday objects consist of pop culture icons, graffiti, street-style, music, cartoons, fashion, religious and political views. The inspiration comes from a surrealistic view with a pop art twist, coining the art form “Surreal Pop Art.”
“Mashing juxtaposing subjects together to create a seamless image.

and Mickey Mouse together but giving Mickey the essence of Johnny is a play on ideologies. The name is also a play on words “cash money” also blending the names together with a twist.
