The Henri Matisse x CASETiFY collection has been developed as a series of tech accessories inspired by the iconic artist to help transform some of his more recognizable works into everyday essentials. The product line is formally entitled the Jazz & Cut-Outs Collection and draws inspiration from the artist's late-career embrace of cut-outs that would go on to define his final era. The various artworks are observed across tech accessories for the iPhone, AirPods, iPad and more, and puts a focus on Matisse's La Gerbe, Les Codas, Le Cirque, The Horse, the Rider and the Clown, The Clown - Plate I, and The Heart Smitten by Love.
The Henri Matisse x CASETiFY collection also features travel accessories to transform luggage and the like into works of art.
