Atelier E.B (Edinburgh, Brussels) produced these scarfs exclusively for fjk3. The interdisciplinary label was founded by artist Lucy McKenzie and fashion and textile designer Beca Lipscombe. Since 2011, Atelier E.B has combined fashion, art, display design, and exhibition-making. Their collaborative work spans textiles, interiors and cultural-historical research—often beyond traditional distribution channels. Instead of catwalks or mass production, Atelier E.B uses installations, exhibitions, and limited collections to rethink fashion as a cultural practice. The scarf’s designs are derived from the illusionistic painting by Lucy McKenzie, which forms the backdrop of the window display installation Faux Sports Shop—a mise-en-scène of a fashion boutique reminiscent of a past era, where Atelier E.B’s clothing appears to float on nylon threads in front of a seemingly iridescent curtain. The respective 1:1 details of the trompe l’œil painting show an abstract interplay of lines, depth and color on fine silk. In version Scarf I, the grid pattern of the painted curtain meets the texture of the fabric, while version Scarf II uses colored lines and fields to suggest spatial depth.
