Solution

Inspired by the paintings of New York Artist Jean Michel Basquiat I wanted to create an Artwork like a ride from the Empire State Building to Chrysler Building by taxi. A lot of impressions, very exciting and colorful - like the first time in NewYork City ...and the paintings of Basquiat :)

There is a quote of Basquiat on the back which says: "I don't think about art when I'm working. I try to think about life." - I love it, so I tried not to illustrate the city but more the feeling of New York :)

I think everybody should visit New York once in a lifetime. Wouldn't it be great to have a little bit of this great city right on your VIKTORINOX? I would love to ;)
