Camo ManiaNew Disruptive Patterns in Design Originally discovered in the fabric of wartime uniforms and intended to abstract the shapes and colours found in nature, camouflage clothing once secured the powerful symbols of solidarity, patriotism and masculinity. However, today, camouflage is much more than just that. Dislodged from its historical context and relocated into the boundless world of art and fashion, it has proven to reveal more than conceal. Camo Mania explores the incomparable workings of visual art, fashion and design to redefine and reify the impacts of camouflage. Its versatility lies in the hands of these creative artists, who through experimenting with visual contrasts, imagery, composition, colour and shape, render the once limited function of this pattern into an artistic tool that transcends possibility.
