In a fusion of art and functionality, Slowtide has collaborated with renowned artist Jess Mudgett to introduce a limited-edition capsule collection of textile essentials. Drawing from the vast landscapes of the American West and the allure of open roads, Mudgett's artwork, traditionally rendered in India Ink on Arches paper, now finds a new canvas: a sustainably sourced beach towel and a tapestry blanket.
The collection showcases the Mudgett Blanket, a premium, USA-crafted tapestry with reversible designs, fringe detailing, and a vegan leather label. Paired with this is a 34 x 62-inch beach towel, boasting a velour front and a 460 GSM looped terry back for efficient moisture absorption.
Mudgett remarks, "These designs encapsulate my favorite recent drawings, capturing the essence of moments experienced in the western US landscapes."
Available exclusively online, the collection not only offers artful designs but also contributes to a cause. With every purchase, 1% of the sale is donated to a customer-chosen nonprofit, emphasizing Slowtide's commitment to giving back.
