Finish: Polished & Brushed
Handmade in Italy
In PORTRAIT ® we care about creating the best quality handmade eyewear with original design. All our frames are the result of the experimentation of form, materials, craftsmanship and Art-driven inspiration.
The Glitch series to which this specific eyewear belongs, have been inspired in the Video ART movement, where the artistic innovation happens within an intangible “place”.
The Glitch is an “error” that often becomes the element of beauty. Pixels, image fragmentation, noise and coloured bars are some of the resources of this fascinating artistic expression.
Having taken inspiration from Video ART, Glitch is the only PORTRAIT ® series that has been interpreted through a 2D material, therefore stainless steel. The metal is yet enriched with acetate and finishes that result from photo-cut and galvanisation, in different colours and textures. Limited edition eyewear of precious craftsmanship.
June - A tribute to Nam June Paik, the Korean- American artist internationally known as “The Father of Video Art” during mid 20th century. Also recognized for his work “The Electronic Superhighway”, an art installation that anticipated the world wide web of electronic communication through a first concept of network information that would be able to address social and environmental issues, as well as the modern economy.
Translated into an eyewear piece, conceived as both opticals and sunglasses, this frame evoques the trendy cat-eyes shape with an Asian, almost abstracted digital approach.
Like all our products, these sunglasses are entirely handmade in Italy by genuine artisans who combine traditional craftsmanship with a high-technology manufacturer, pursuing the highest quality standards.
The production process adheres to environmentally-friendly and sustainable practices. All of our suppliers have an energy-efficient philosophy and guarantee a slave-free workplace.June - A tribute to Nam June Paik, the Korean- American artist internationally known as “The Father of Video Art” during mid 20th century.

Opticals and sunglasses are the results of deep design research and experimentation, strongly influenced by art-history movements and dedicated to its most iconic figures.
Coherently with the project’s art soul, the communication is based on the promotion of emerging artists in fair cooperation that co-endorses both players, the brand and its fascinating testimonials.
