A two-year fabrication process exploring the dialogue between workwear and automobiles.
"American artist Daniel Arsham has teamed up with Stone Island on a new project titled ‘Safari.’ Arsham customized a 911 and a Unimog 404 with rally car specs and bespoke upholstery. The vehicles are to be presented in an exhibition at the La Brea Stone Island store in Los Angeles, which will also feature the premiere of a 10-minute documentary directed by Jeremy Elkin. Shot in New York, Georgia, and the California desert, the film tells the story of the collaboration through the words of Arsham and race-car driver Leh Keen, who built the re-imagined Porsche." - Designboom
