The "Suited" collection is a testament to Bessone's innovative approach to art. Each piece in the collection is digitally designed and printed on bright white, fine poly-cotton blend, matte canvas. The artist individually treats each artwork, ensuring that no two designs are the same. The limited edition of ten pieces comes with a Print Certification label with a wax stamp, hand-titled and signed by the artist himself.
Bessone's inspiration for this collection stems from nature and human artefacts. He believes in the concept of Biomimetics, which seeks sustainable solutions to human challenges by emulating nature's patterns and strategies. The "Suited" collection is a daily reminder for people to wear their 'personal best' suit, emphasizing the unique creatures they are. It carries a positive message using nature's metaphors, where animals and suits become one entity with a vibrant meaning.
The creation of the "Suited" collection was a meticulous process that involved extensive research. Bessone studied animal characteristics and human preferences to find the perfect match. He also focused on action suits, aiming to find the right combination between the animal and the suit to emphasize a specific human behavior. The design was not the deciding factor for him, but rather the motivation behind it - to create a collection with an inspirational meaning.
Despite the challenges in finding the right match between the characteristics of the animal and the suit, Bessone successfully overcame them. He carefully selected animals that have a positive impact on humans and matched them with suits that are related to a specific action. The result is a collection that is not only visually appealing but also contextually meaningful.
The "Suited" collection has been recognized for its outstanding creativity and innovation, winning the Golden A' Fine Arts and Art Installation Design Award in 2018. This prestigious award is granted to marvelous, outstanding, and trendsetting creations that reflect the designer's prodigy and wisdom. They are venerated products and bright ideas that advance art, science, design, and technology, embodying extraordinary excellence and significantly impacting the world with their desirable characteristics.
