LAYERS – JEWELLERY COLLAB LEK / RENK’ART |

LAYERS is a jewellery capsule collection between legendary French graffiti artist LEK and jewellery brand RENK’ART, designed by Marion Broodthuis Gravier.

Since 2019, RENK’ART, the Berlin-Parisian brand continues to attract more and more Street-Art and Fashion lovers with its jewellery, made from 100% Street materials.

Renk’Art, which translates in French to “a date with art” is the first street art inspired jewellery brand that offers unique ready-to-wear art pieces. Made of ‘Graffiti Fordite’ (accumulation of layers of paint like Ford cars) , every piece tells its own very unique story, combining art, fashion and history.

From Berlin, Paris, Lisbon and Brussels, RENK’ART continues its series of collaborations with renowned graffiti and street artists from all over the world.

For this third series, RENK’ART is returning to its source: PARIS.

LEK needs no introduction: his distinctive style mixes harmoniously the codes of architecture, abstract, futurism with graﬃti.

His artistic journey is impressive: often working as a duo with SOWAT from Mausolee (2012) to Palais de Tokyo, Les Bains Douches (2013), La Tour 13, his artistic residency at Villa Medici (2015), Graff on Tour(s) with le Centre des Monuments Nationaux at La Rochelle (2018), or painting a Castle for the Label Valette Festival (2022) to numerous artistic collaborations with Agnes B to name a few.

The idea of a collaboration came during an encounter at the Label Valette Festival in 2022. Creating the material from layers of mastered and documented paints seemed very interesting to both of them .

For the LAYERS collection, LEK started out with painting multiple layers of his signature graffiti lettering style with vibrant colours, which were then intricately cut out by RENK’ART and melded with sterling silver to create 50 stunning unique one-off pieces.

From cufflinks to earrings and necklaces, the result is a slick and stylish jewellery collection.
