SAINT.VALENTINE was created and is solely operated by Arianne Gor (me!).
I started SAINT.VALENTINE out of a desire to breathe new life into secondhand and forgotten pieces of clothing/shoes. Even taking a regular sneaker and making it one-of-a-kind. We live in a world where consumer culture means take and eat, over and over again. But I want to create works have lasting value because of the fact that they're a gift to the person receiving it; designed and thought of with only that person in mind. The legacy of a piece of art is really significant and important in my practice.
Each piece is priced to include the value of a one-off piece and its long-lasting-ness (shoes are stain-resistant and waterproofed, clothes are washable).
