Bruno Zhu pour enSoie et SAALHOF 1123
Continuing enSoie’s tradition of artist-designed silk scarves, Bruno Zhu has created a playful design featuring lipstick kisses forming a hand-drawn heart, framed by an elegant line. The kiss motif has become a recurring signature throughout Zhu’s artistic practice, appearing across exhibitions, publications and collectible objects.
Inspired by conversations on love, life and artistic creation, the design also playfully references the similarity between the French word bisou (kiss) and the pronunciation of the artist’s name, B. Zhu.
To celebrate Bruno Zhu’s collaboration with enSoie and SAALHOF 1123, we invite you to join us this Sunday, 14 June, at 17.00 for an evening cocktail at our maison on Spalenberg 27.
