Luxury brands not only create beautiful items they create amazing packaging to go with them. We often hold and display these boxes and bags for a time and then eventually discard them to make room for something else. Stephen wanted to transform these items into art pieces in their own right and the luxury series was conceived. \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eThe luxury series features one-of-a-kind pieces of art using up-cycled designer boxes, bags and packaging as a canvas. Each piece is completely unique and original, using mixed-media techniques like embroidery, quilting and assemblage before embellishing it with handmade and surprising elements. All of the elements for all of the pieces are created in his studio in Charlotte NC. Whether offering a critique on materialism, a commentary on contemporary culture, or relaying the emotion of luxury itself, the result is so stunning - a box will never simply be a box again.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eEach piece is sold framed in acrylic and is presented in a gift box.

The 12” size is created using a single luxury bag or box while the larger sizes are created from luxury boxes and bags that are deconstructed, collaged and then embroidered into one large background. Each of the floral petals are then embroidered directly through the box using multiple colors of thread. The embroidered butterflies are added in relief to the background and are available in either natural or tonal colors.
All of the luxury pieces are created using up-cycled luxury items like scarves, boxes and bags. No printing or reproduction of the logos is used when creating these pieces.
