A.M.S. (c. 2019) is an interdisciplinary project by artist Andrea Smith, as an outlet to explore alternate mediums.
Currently, A.M.S. explores the wearable label, with small-run collections offering limited edition pieces.
CARE, POLICY
AMS textiles are deadstock cotton, hand—painted with a natural pigmentation process, incl. soymilk, earth pigments, and indigo powders. By some magic, this process creates a bond with the fabric. Though not a fool-proof permanence, the ephemeral nature of each piece is one of a kind and by intention. Current collections are screen-printed in Athens, GR.
AMS Jeans, are painted with white acrylic paint. All jeans are sourced vintage—with Levi 501s, 505s, or silvertabs as AMS signature. Before they reach you, each piece has been washed to ensure desired color, fade, and overall look. My intention is to create something that appears found, sort of ancient, as if touched by the sun. This said, each piece, on cotton or denim, will be subject to change, age, or crack over time—to me, adding to the appeal of something truly unique, loved, and lived-in. All pieces may be machine washed, cold.
