London-basedĀ accessoriesĀ designer Lulu GuinnessĀ has unveiled her latest project, an Anish Kapoor-style paint-splatter collaboration titled the “Paint Project”.

“I’m driven to create something unique” says Guinness, who teamed up with artist Joe SteeleĀ to create 180 exclusive paint-splattered Lulu Guinness bags.

Steele worked with explosive experts SysFX, to splatter the bags with red, white and black paint: “I find traditional forms of painting slow and boring. My work with explosives is about creating something beautiful out of a moment of chaos,” explains the artist in aĀ videoĀ posted by the brand.

Bags from the Paint Project collection are available now for $446 in Lulu Guinness stores andĀ online.

Three of the bags, as well as one from Guinness’s personal collection, will be auctioned off on eBay to benefit children’s charityĀ The Art Room.
