Talking about Antonio Marras in the field of art, curator Francesco Alfano Miglietti shares, “For Marras, everything can be artistic material; his personal history, his island, his dogs, the horizons, the sea, history, rags, relations and relationships.” Much like how he approaches life, Marras’ fall collection provides for an eclectic wardrobe. The lineup features embellished staples such as v-neck sweaters, bomber jackets, and double-breasted coats. Decorated with various points of reference, the lineup delights the visual senses.
Further explaining Marras’ affair with art, Miglietti enlightens, “All the disciplines he has approached, or which have approached him, become materials to use in the same way as collage photography, found objects, painting, sculpture, installation art, etc. Materials with which he has physical relations, a hand-to-hand fight, with which he pursues a confrontation that will generate an encounter.”
