Tracy and Jon Haaland - Chemical Wedding
Artist's Statement
Pulling inspiration from their fine art backgrounds, Seattle area
artists Jon and Tracy Haaland of Chemical Wedding strive to bring
utility and wearablity to their art. In 2003 Jon and Tracy teamed up to create
a line of unique handcrafted handbags. They used new and scrap leathers together with
hand-formed copper rings, intricate silk screen designs and their own
brand of rustic hand crafted wood handles creating pieces of wearable
art that are out of the ordinary. In a short amount of time their
handbags have been seen in galleries and boutiques around the world from
San Francisco to Hong Kong. Jon and Tracy handcraft each bag to order.
The artistic process is what they love.
