The creative mind is a powerful tool but why settle for one when you can form a collective? That’s exactly the ethos of Maiden Britain; an extended family of artistic individuals that get together and collaborate on a wide range of inspiring projects…
Maiden Britain is made up of 12 pro-active creative individuals with a mutual interest in creating and sharing challenging work that expresses their desires, thoughts and experiences.
The members include fashion designers, tailors, photographers, writers, poets, musicians, illustrators, philosophers, teachers, make-up artists, performance artists, stylists and graffiti artists.
Robert Boon is a prime example of the Maiden Britain family, like many creatives he does not limit himself to one discipline and enjoys the challenge of new creative experiences. Described as a graphic artist, typographer, artist and illustrator, Boon, no doubt, has more to add to his multi-tasking artistic skills. On Maiden Britain he says: "Maiden Britain is an extended family of creative people that believe and depend on each other. We are supporters of a revolutionary concept of arts, fashion, publications, film, music and contemporary cultures.
“Our rules are simple: live, work, love and laugh together.”
"OUR LABOUR IS THE LOVE OF LIFE MADE VISIBLE." All the images featured are from the Maiden Britain Spring/Summer 08 collection - a collaboration between Robert Boon, designer Ziad Ghanem and photographer Tanausu Herrera.
