When Art Wakes Up
Martin Kohout is a young Czech artist who likes to blend fashion with visual arts. At the last Prague Fashion Week, Kohout presented a collection named Les Nymphéas, inspired by Claude Monet’s Water Lilies series. As a photographer, painter and self-taught fashion designer, Kohout is fascinated with great artists, past and present. He tries to express his emotions through fabrics shaped into beautiful silhouettes. This photo shoot was created one cold winter morning in the sculptor’s studio at the Academy of Fine Arts in Prague, by talented photographer Jiří Královec. The dust-covered floor, the fragile grace of the models dressed in original outfits, with French chansons quietly playing in the background and snowflakes falling outside the window, have created a poetic ambience that has been brilliantly captured on film. Watch and dream!
