Sprayground, celebrated for its thought-provoking and innovative accessories, has unveiled an exclusive collaboration with The Metropolitan Museum of Art. Drawing inspiration from beloved works of art in The Met collection, the 17-piece capsule is exclusively available at The Met Store and online at store.metmuseum.org

The exclusive collection features an array of stunning designs inspired by works of art spanning 5,000 years of art from around the globe in The Met collection. Highlights include the Chinese Landscape Backpack which borrows motifs from a late 17th-century Jingdezhen vase, the Kuba Kingdom Headdress Backpack based on a 19th-20th century beaded mpaan crafted in the Kuba Kingdom (present-day Democratic Republic of Congo), and the Greek Temple of Sardis Column Backpack which recalls a monumental foliate carved column ca. 300 BCE.

Each piece includes a special tag, hang tag, and a plaque, inspired by the plaques seen in museums, complete with a QR code, providing detailed information about the bag and its relationship to the original artwork that inspired its design.

The bags will be available on the Sprayground website on August 11. [SEE VIDEO]
