Holly Andres’ new series: The Fall of Spring Hill
Holly Andres’ new series, The Fall of Spring Hill, illustrates a narrative where something serious and mysterious is about to go down. An earlier collection, Sparrow Lane, was full of Nancy Drew moments, luscious color, and feminist undertones.

I’ve been recently obsessed with, and inspired by, hex signs found in Pennsylvania Dutch folk art. My own Hecksagons have a crazy neon color palette, but the old school originals were already eye-popping juxtaposed against weathered barns. I remember seeing them on country road trips as a kid, and one of my favorite artists, Clare Rojas references them in her work.

I’ve always been an avid follower of the Comfort Station brand in Cheshire St, London, so I decided to pop in on Sunday to have a look at their new collection. It’s unique and different, featuring railway tracks and my favourite barometer necklaces, where you can rate the way you, or someone you’ve just met, is feeling, with indications of stormy, fair and excellent.
