Supreme Honors The Late Dash Snow For Their Autumn/Winter 2016 Collection and Skate Deck Series
Dash Snow was an American multidisciplinary artist born in New York in 1981. With his charismatic personality and spontaneous output, he became a pivotal figure in downtown culture from a young age, embodying its creative and subversive spirit. Writing graffiti prolifically as SACE, he was a member of the world famous IRAK crew. Snow’s gallery work would prove similarly influential. Intent on immortalizing fleeting moments in the lives of he and his friends, he took a prodigious number of photographs that have been exhibited and published worldwide. In addition to photos, installations, zines and video, Snow developed a distinctive collage style that splattered tabloid clippings with bodily fluids and glitter. He passed away in 2009 at the age of 27. Supreme will release the Dash Snow collection of skate decks, sold as a set, alongside a T-shirt featuring the artwork of Dash Snow both in-stores and online on September 8. Japan will see a parallel release on September 10. photo courtesy of Supreme
