British “snow artist” Simon Beck stomps around in powder to create huge patterns with intricate, compass-orientated lines. The news this week, Icebreaker will soon make underwear featuring Beck’s snow designs.
We covered the artwork of Simon Beck last month. His partnership with New Zealand wool garment manufacturer Icebreaker is called “The Art Of Nature” project.
The collaboration will include 20 garments with Beck’s designs, all of which were created as he walked in the snow of the Alps with snowshoes and compass.
Walking extremely carefully, Beck can spend up to 11 hours laying down the patterned tracks. Since he began in 2004, Beck has created a range of designs, from festive snowflakes to three-dimensional squares, to star bursts and spirograph patterns.
