The world of Ralph Lauren Home has long included hallmarks of the American West: tooled leather, silver accessories, handmade rugs, and more. For its new Canyon Road collection, the iconic brand followed that inspiration directly to the source, teaming up with seventh-generation sister-brother Navajo weavers Naiomi and Tyler Glasses to create a range of furnishings that herald indigenous craft. The siblings now serve as the label's first artists in residence in the home category.

Splash captures the kind of moment that usually evaporates as quickly as it appears, the instant when paint leaves the brush and lands in an unplanned, perfect pattern. This design takes that impulse and fixes it in textile form, allowing a fleeting artistic gesture to live permanently within a space. The concept begins with the language of abstract art. The surface is scattered with color in unpredictable rhythms, as if created by a single motion of the arm and a quick flick of the wrist.

The collection of 17 mixed-media pieces showcases the transformation of flat paper into sculptural volume through a simple fold, highlighting the intersection of craft and materials.

Ulla Johnson's collaboration with the Pollock-Krasner Foundation showcases her commitment to infusing art into fashion, bridging creativity through textile prints derived from notable works.

"Her current endeavor can be described as a work of cartography, in the widest sense. The weavings model reality in the most abstract ways, combining scientific inquiry, aesthetics and technique, as all map-making does that tries to capture reality in spatial form."
