About Piet Paris
Piet Paris has been an established name in Dutch fashion illustration for many years. His work operates at the intersection of fashion, art, and illustration, and is known for its elegant lines, graphic simplicity, and strong sense of silhouette and style.
Over the years, he has collaborated with various cultural institutions, museums, media, and brands, and his illustrations have appeared in diverse publications and exhibitions both at home and abroad. With just a few lines, he often manages to strikingly capture a character, posture, or fashion silhouette.
With The Sketch Show, Piet Paris reveals a more spontaneous and personal side of his working process. The exhibition offers a rare glimpse into the initial ideas, loose sketches, and direct gestures that precede his final works.
