Cali Dewitt delves into the Vault by Vans universe to outline a new collection that projects contemporary fears and questions the uncertainty of the future.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The capsule is sheathed in the original artwork<\/strong> of Dewitt<\/strong>, known not only for his artistic work but also for being Kurt Cobain’s childhood caregiver. The seven pieces that make up the capsule convey a variety of cultural concerns through photorealistic graphics<\/strong> and quotes that foreshadow a bleak future<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

For those unfamiliar with @caramelbobby<\/a><\/strong>‘s work, it ranges from fanzines, prints, photographs, music videos to textile collections. Through all these media, he builds collages with provocative images<\/strong> from the internet and puns taken from headlines or advertising.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

DRAWING THE NEW VAULT<\/strong><\/h5>\n

Dewitt<\/strong> imagined the brand’s archival silhouettes as blank canvases – a creative approach with which he builds each of his creations. Specifically, for this first Vault by Vans<\/strong> collection, the iconic artist (who we interviewed<\/a> on this magazine) wanted to evoke the “insufferable, obsessed egos of humanity<\/strong>“, capturing the “endless spiral of stupidity, the death of privacy and the funeral for the mystery that lies ahead”.<\/p>\n

The footwear line includes five silhouettes: the Sk8-HI VLT LX<\/strong>, the Era VLT LX<\/strong>, the Chukka Boot VLT LX<\/strong>, the Old Skool VLT LX<\/strong> and the Classic Slip-On VLT LX<\/strong>. Each is bathed in the darkness of a pattern that combines earth<\/strong> and coffins<\/strong> on premium cotton canvas. They also include a series of explicit embroidered messages to denationalize the notion of uncertainty.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The collection is completed by three textile pieces<\/strong> including a Vault by Vans jumper, a short-sleeved trouser and a jogger that continues to verbalize panic with “GLOBAL WARNING<\/strong>“.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The Vault by Vans<\/strong> x Cali Dewitt<\/strong> collection will be available in select Vault by Vans shops from 23 December<\/strong>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
