[Sex, Drugs, Rock-n-Roll, and Leather] South Paradiso Leather

Finished

Rocket presents the first exhibition in Japan by the LA-based custom leather clothing line, South Paradiso Leather. South Paradiso was established in San Francisco, California during the summer of 2001. Joel Von Stezelberger was inspired to start a custom clothing line upon purchasing a rare piece by the legendary East West Musical Instruments Co. This exhibiiton unveils the world's largest East West Musical Instruments Co. collection. Joel explains, "I found that since the 1970's, areas such as music, fashion, and art in general has lost a hand crafted sense and became mass-produced and about selling volume. I would like to try and put some art back in fashion. Working with the original East West artists and craftsmen, I was able to continue their traditions. From inspiration to product I am excited to share this with Japan."
