CARHARTT WIP SKATEBOARDING X GALERIE CONTINUA: CONCRETE CATHEDRAL

Art, architecture, and skateboarding? Not your typical combo, however, this is the latest collaboration from CARHARTT WIP Skateboarding. They have teamed up with renowned art institute Galeria Continua on a conceptual space to ride your board. Cool! The project, which is released today, centers around the building of an experimental, outdoor skate space at the gallery’s location in Boissy-le-Châtel. The snake run (shot by Maxime Verret) was created by MBL architects and Bureau D. Apheceix, using a series of free-form, artisanal techniques that allow the structure to blend in with its surrounding landscape. 

A short-film, CONCRETE CATHEDRAL, supports the space and was shot by Romain Batard. The feature stars CARHARTT WIP skaters: Felipe Bartolomé, Joseph Biais, Igor Fardin, Denis Lynn, Maité Steenhoudt, Rémy Taveira, Pietro Tirelli, Sylvain Tognelli and Armand Vaucher. As well as the short-film, a capsule collection was created which you can shop here.
