Swampgod
Swampgod is a Venice-based label known for its raw, one-of-a-kind garments crafted from factory cutoffs, deadstock clothing, and salvaged metal hardware. The project began in 2020 when self-taught designer Arturo Boem started upcycling archetypal workwear and sharing his creations online. His distinctive approach caught the eye of Rick Owens, leading to a collaboration that helped shape the brand’s direction. Designed in a former sixteenth-century church, Swampgod offers a radical reinterpretation of waste, wear, and the sacred weight of materials.
