'90s Icon Kim Gordon on Making Art Inspired By Fleetwood Mac and Sharing Clothes with Daughter Coco Moore

What was your starting point when it came to designing?

They sent me an image of something I’d done for a small boutique in downtown New York. It was a portfolio book of word paintings from a Fleetwood Mac song. It was the word ”She," so that was a starting point: thinking of other pronouns. And then as I was painting. I decided to expand on that and do some other words and abstract paintings. I used metallic inks and watercolors. When I first made paintings of Names of Noise bands I saw the large canvases as similar to T-shirts, the way people buy T-shirts to places they I‘ve never been as souvenirs. They already had different shapes of hoodies, sweat-shirts and T-shirts to choose from. I suggested we add scarves.
