RICHARD HAMBLETON 'SHADOWMAN' PORTRAIT NECKTIE 902

a beaded portrait of a 'shadowman' figure, inspired by street artist, Richard Hambleton, who was known for his life-sized silhouettes which were a fixture of new york's downtown '80s art scene. Hambleton maintained a studio at 57 orchard street, now home to title of work, and famously slept in a coffin above the current studio.

this ombre necktie is hand-beaded with miyuki beads and individually handmade in our lower east side studio.
