‘Snow Black’

‘Snow Black’, 2022

Stephanie Van Burk of Van Burk Official

Acrylic on Vegan Leather Jacket –  Size Medium

For this jacket, I have been channeling darker feelings than usual. I am back to a darker phase made up with a lot of non-colors. Especially black and white. Followed by my own feelings of anxiety, frustration and sadness through those hard times following the pandemic, my style brought up to life a brand new jacket from a dimension totally void of colors.

The black paint on the white vegan leather express my feelings one stroke at the time. It helped me unfold myself from this dark phase and regain equilibrium to see again the world with a new pair of eyes. In color.
