Cat pajamas tackle new which means in Helga Stentzel's modern menagerie. Working in what she calls “family surrealism”, the London-based artist fashions cheeky illusions out of socks, hoodies and even fits that, as soon as draped over a washing line, appear to be a cow grazing in a pasture or a sloth hanging lazily of a department. . Her newest tasks vary from the snowy mountains of Austria to the River Thames to the brightly coloured buildings of the island city of Burano within the Venetian lagoon.
Stentzel is at present collaborating with Portmanteau, a Helsinki-based efficiency firm, on a manufacturing of his stylish compositions. She has chosen prints obtainable in her store and retains a watch on Instagram for brand spanking new laundry creations.
