Artist Collaborations
Through the Years
At Oribe, every product is born from a commitment to design and craftsmanship. Each holiday season, we partner with artists who celebrate and transform our shared values of craftsmanship and storytelling into museum-quality works of art—just as Oribe Canales has embraced the art of hairdressing.

Thandiwe Muriu
Thandiwe Muriu
Holidays 2024
For our latest holiday collection, Oribe collaborated with Kenyan artist Thandiwe Muriu, whose artistic vision embodies the jubilant spirit of community and togetherness. In her award-winning work, Muriu often photographs her models - who wear elaborate eyewear made from recycled material - draped in richly patterned African textiles and set against a nearly identical backdrop, creating a hypnotic and invigorating optical illusion.
Muriu designed two bespoke textile samples for our collaboration, combining her artistic flair with iconic Oribe design elements. She worked with recycled Oribe packaging from the archives to handcraft one-of-a-kind eyewear and teamed up with talented Oribe artists to present a bold expression of beauty that embodies the timeless African proverb: “If your sister does your hair, you don’t need a mirror.”
Spiros Halaris
Spiros Halaris
Spring 2024
Oribe welcomed spring with two limited edition gift sets designed in collaboration with Spiros Halaris – a multidisciplinary artist and designer whose works create an imaginative world imbued with elegant classicism and decorated with rich motifs.
Inspired by Victorian floriography, often referred to as the language of flowers, the enchanting design features a lush floral pattern bursting from our Oribe fragrance bottle. Every detail pays homage to the floral notes of our collection and evokes the messages of our signature fragrances: White Butterfly Jasmine from Côte d'Azur is a symbol of grace and elegance, Blue Violet from Valley of Flowers is an expression of loyalty, and Angelica Root from Desertland is meant to represent inspiration.
Chris Chun
Chris Chun
Lunar New Year 2024
To celebrate the Year of the Dragon, Oribe collaborated with Australian-Chinese artist Chris Chun to combine traditional Chinese art with a vibrant and modern twist. Inspired by his cultural background, childhood memories and travels throughout Asia, Chris captured this time of renewal in a captivating artwork titled "The Dragon and the Peony," which features on our limited edition Lunar New Year sets.
In The Dragon and the Peony, Chris weaves in bold colors and lush, maximalist patterns. The wooden dragon symbolizes vitality, growth, and kindness, while the peony rose embodies the essence of spring. The addition of the Mariposa flower is a nod to Oribe's signature note in the Côte d'Azur fragrance, a fragrant white flower reminiscent of fluttering butterflies.
Louis Barthelemy
Louis Barthelemy
Holidays 2023
Louis Barthélemy is an illustrator, textile designer and artist whose work is based on a deep commitment to the preservation and revival of traditional crafts.
For our holiday collaboration, Louis showcased the central role that hair care has played in our daily lives since ancient times with a sprawling three-panel tapestry. The whimsical narrative in Eternal Rituals visualizes hair care rituals dating back thousands of years, beginning with an exalted deity whose hair flows upward like the life-giving Nile. Under the watchful eye of the god Horus, the flowing locks of mythical Egyptian gods and goddesses are groomed and braided, surrounded by lush flora and fauna, all with playful nods to Oribe.
To further honor the craftsmanship, Oribe commissioned Louis, along with a team of artists at the Kahhal Looms outside Cairo, to create a unique kilim, or handwoven tapestry, of the artwork.
Kohei Kyomori
Kohei Kyomori
Holidays 2022
Contemporary Japanese artist Kohei Kyomori is known for his vibrant digital paintings that reinterpret the concepts of classical ornamentation and handmade craftsmanship for the modern age.
Inspired by the Oribe Goddess logo, Kohei created Goddess of Paradise for our holiday collection, which combines traditional Japanese animal and plant motifs in a magnificent garden where a goddess's flowing hair transforms into cascading water. The myriad shapes and forms the water takes represent the diverse hair textures - all beautiful - seen in this world. The animals and insects featured in the piece are attracted to the scents of the plants, reminiscent of Oribe's signature Côte d'Azur fragrance.
Antoinette Poisson
Antoinette Poisson
Holidays 2021
Vincent Farelly and Jean-Baptiste Martin, co-founders and artistic directors of À Paris chez Antoinette Poisson, specialize in the production of elaborate hand-drawn and watercolor-painted 18th-century single-sheet wallpapers, historically known as decorative “papier dominoté” or “domino papers.”
Using this traditional printing technique, Vincent and Jean-Baptiste have created four unique designs for our 2021 holiday collection. They have incorporated elements from Oribe's history - from the goddess logo to the floral notes of the Côte d'Azur fragrance - into 18th and 19th century motifs with repeating geometric and floral patterns, weaving together the values of both brands. Some elements of these intricate designs were even inspired by Oribe Canales' tattoos.
Rowan Harrison
Rowan Harrison
Holidays 2020
Rowan Harrison, illustrator and founder of Two Tribes Pottery, classifies his work as contemporary decorative pottery and ink drawings that have a strong connection to his Native American heritage and culture.
Using the Native American technique of hand-coiled pottery combined with a contemporary vision, Rowan creates unique works of art that honor the craftsmanship and skills of Native American peoples who have experimented with the earth's natural elements for hundreds of years to achieve beauty and functionality.
For our collection, Rowan created three original artworks featuring traditional Native American motifs of the Southwest. Each design was intricately hand drawn and painted, combining elements of Pueblo artisans to represent the land, natural beauty and spiritual elements of the American Southwest.
Block Shop Textiles
Block Shop Textiles
Holidays 2019
Block Shop is a Los Angeles-based textile brand and design studio founded by artist sisters Hopie and Lily Stockman. They began in 2013 with a small collection of scarves made in Jaipur, India, with the goal of supporting and celebrating the Indian tradition of hand block printing.
For our collaboration, four original artworks were hand printed by fifth generation master artisans in India, using carved wood blocks and natural dyes on handmade cotton rag paper. These limited edition prints play on the timeless theme of balance through arches and stripes that are vibrant, harmonious and optimistic.
Aoi Yamaguchi
Aoi Yamaguchi
Holidays 2018
Aoi Yamaguchi, born and raised in Hokkaido, Japan, is an award-winning calligraphy artist who has been trained in the fundamentals of calligraphy by Master Zuiho Sato since the age of six.
For our holiday collaboration, Yamaguchi created an original artwork using sumi ink on the highest quality Japanese gasen-shi paper to create a calligraphy symbol that combines traditional technique with creative expression, resulting in a fluid nijimi (blurriness) effect that makes the characters appear alive. The kanji character “想 (sou ・omo-u)” embodies a deep, conscious gratitude and love for those dearest to you, as well as an inspired imagination.
