HONOR MagicWatch 2 launches Artist Collection

With MagicWatch 2, HONOR is associating its brand image with the fashion and art world as it targets the fashion-conscious consumer. The new straps and matching watch faces users can customize their watch face in the gallery feature on their smartphone or smartwatch by simply searching “Artist Collection” in the search bar.

With illustrative and graphic designs from some of the most talented creatives in the industry. Artists include Jacky Tsai, George Greaves, Wang DongLing and Giovanni Ozzola who have shared their fashion-forward design philosophy and the inspiration behind the design of the innovative new timepiece.

HONOR x George Greaves: A Touch of Exotic 
Known for his bold graphic prints and with an eye for the unusual, Bristol-based illustrator George Greaves is a master in dreamlike, archetypal imagery. Inspired by nature, the unisex palm tree design combines geometric elements with a muted color palette, evoking a sense of majestic landscapes and far-flung adventures. George liked the idea of creating a timeless scene on a time telling device and “The Palm Tree” perfectly embodies this.

HONOR x Wang DongLing: Reinterpreting Historical Calligraphy 
Wang Dongling is widely recognized as China’s greatest living calligrapher and is known for his large abstract works that he calls “calligraphic paintings.” Bringing together poetry and painting, Dongling creates his limited-edition design for the MagicWatch 2, by incorporating elements of his signature experimental calligraphic style, with powerful brush-and-ink strokes using deep olive green hues.

HONOR x Jacky Tsai: An Innovative Fusion of Pop Art and Chinese Craftmanship 
Jacky Tsai, one of the world’s leading contemporary pop artists based in London, the Chinese artist is known for his vibrant style and inventive approach to design which fuses traditional eastern artistic techniques and imagery with western Pop Art. With eye-catching limited-edition designs, named “Floral Horse” and “Shanghai Tang Café” respectively, Jacky fuses elements of pop art with iconic eastern influences using splashes of colour across the watch faces and straps.

HONOR x Giovanni Ozzola: Experimenting with light, photography and sculpture
Originating from Florence, Giovanni is a multidisciplinary artist working primarily in photography, as well as video and sculptural installation. Giovanni’s “Old Walls” reflects on mankind’s compulsion to tell stories by using an artistic technique called detachment where he preserves sections of old wall paintings. Giovanni is interested in exploring how people can tell stories and preserve legacies and experiences through tracks on the walls.

HONOR x Zhou Li: Creating movement and rhythm with dynamic lines and brunch strokes 
Known for her oriental aesthetic and acute sensory observations of the world, Zhou Li is one of the most influential female artists in China. Zhou creates paintings, sculptures, installations and public arts using multiple mediums including oil painting, ink, charcoal and cotton textiles. In her limited-edition designs for the HONOR MagicWatch 2 “The Peach Garden-Pink – Lines NO.3”, Zhou combines dynamic lines and brush strokes to represent flowing energy, adding a moving and vigorous look to the surface of the artwork.
