Designer Statement

Kent Stetson

I believe that a great handbag can engage people in the same way as art. In 2003, as a framing experiment, I formed one of my two dimensional pieces into a handbag. Since then, handbags have become my medium and I have created unique designs for collectors throughout the world. When you acquire a bag that I have made, you become a patron of an unusual kind of art.

I craft each handbag through an artisanal process in my studio in Providence, Rhode Island. I create an image, which is then digitally-printed on to canvas. Next, I coat the printed-canvas before finally cutting and sewing the bag. I have spent the past 10 years developing this process, which is a blend of technological innovation and traditional craftsmanship. The canvas and the structural components that go into the construction of each bag are primarily American-made. When completed, I sign the inside of the bag. There is a lot of joy that goes into creating each bag.

There can be moments when life and art fuse together. While there may be no single formula for this phenomenon, it is my hope that the bags I make can be a catalyst for this reaction.
