With the second installment of our ongoing relationship with Publish, we teamed up with the California-based label to curate a taut capsule of headwear options for the Spring/Summer 2013 season. Pulling design tenants from iconic Virgin Mary interpretations, the collection will infuse an all-over print motif onto a small range of hat options. For the collection, we tapped Atlanta-based, Mr. All Gold Everything himself, Trinidad James to be the face of the initial editorial look at the project.
Stay tuned for further release info…

When it comes to showcasing some of the best up and coming artists Atlanta has to offer, look no further than ABV Gallery. Proving true, this past weekend ABV hosted the premiere exhibition “All But Reason” of artist Trey Moseley. Moseley, also represented by ABV, unveiled a combination of paintings and installation all under the same banner that consisted of works that were both serene and violent. “All But Reason” is a completely unique experience that confronts viewers with the question, what would we see if we could peel back our flesh and draw our dark and savage nature to the surface?
At the show’s opening this past weekend, we had the pleasure to view the works and catch up with the man behind the art. So take a look at the images below, as well as some quotes from Trey Moseley.
How did you get associated with ABV Gallery in Atlanta from a farming town in middle Georgia?
When I initially moved up here I had a friend that lived in a party house here in the city, one of those places where time stops and people enter in waves. I was asked to do a large scale mural in the space. As I was painting I met a man in circle glasses and nice boots. His name was Ash Hayer. As we began to hang out, and we sipped our drinks, he told me that he worked at a design firm/gallery and that I should stop by. I decided to stop by. That was 3 years ago. What is the underlying story behind the All But Reason exhibition?
What’s the theme that ties all of the “All But Reason” pieces together?
The underlying theme is the unknown. My interest isn’t in telling my story but allowing people to think for themselves, come to there own conclusions about my work, and in doing so maybe the world around them. I only use my life as reference because it is there in front of me, it’s all I know. We are all conditioned into reality differently and because of this we react differently to the objects around us. I am interested in creating a vessel of possibilities and meanings to provide the viewer a mirror into there own understanding of the world.
What’s the next step for Trey Moseley?
To become but a storm drenching everything in it’s path.

Black Scale has always professed a decidedly darker and slightly caliginous aesthetic throughout its formative years. Despite subsisting very well within the confines of the greater “streetwear” sphere, the label has been able to maintain its darkside while hanging with the graphic-tee movements and motif-heavy designs. For Spring/Summer 2013, the brand delves into the world of accessories with a two-piece inspired by bones. A bracelet and a ring are offered that are treated in a metallic finish and engraved with Black Scale typography.
