Rowan Mersh is a textile based sculptor who has been commissioned by Fendi to create a series of leather based projects. His sculptures have been created by utilising off cuts from the brands leather goods . As you can see below, the sculptures have been hung and draped within the large window space with brightly coloured Fendi bags placed through out. It almost looks as if they are trying to replicate a-shop-within-a-shop, as the merchandise has been placed in display cabinets, on mannequins, etc.
Visually its very impressive how these slithers of leather have been bound together to form this marble effect. The flow of both the pieces is equally as powerful. Even the metal rods sticking out on either side lead a nice path for the eye to follow without the sculptures merging into the background.
I'm intrigued to see what Harrods are preparing for their window scheme for spring, as they have yet to be unveiled...
