Stylist Sándor Szél of Budapest-based Sasa Art, created the Remixed collection through a collaboration with graphic designers, Bálint Feith.

"When creating Sasa Art, the most important thing for me is to work with different photographers and digital graphic designers, which always produces multiple outcomes. This way there's always a new, indefinable style born, which can hopefully present something new each time," says Szél.

"Bálint's technique was a perfect match for my collection. Due to his graphic sensibility, the hairstyles were really emphasized. Inspired by various elements such as shapes, colors, people, and feelings, Szél says, Feith's work really inspired me and Remixed. "The deep content and psychedelic nature of his work caught my attention."
