Tactility: Contemporary Fashion Illustration
Posted by Fabio 3 October 2016
Fashion illustration never dies. In fact, despite the digital age, it continues to thrive. The digital is often asserted as the death of print media, but on the contrary TACTILITY aims to show that digital mediums like Instagram are being utilised by contemporary artists to represent their analogue, tactile images to a wider audience than ever before.
Showing the image’s journey from artist’s brush to touch-screen, TACTILITY proves that it is a medium not past it’s printed golden age, but of increasing relevance in our world of instant access and gratification.
