Michael Houghton
Creative Alchemist Who Transforms His Experience as Performer, Fashion Designer, Artist, and Decorator into Visual Magic.
"New York based Artist, fashion designer & musician Michael Houghton is the embodiment of what the rock n’ roll lifestyle is all about.
His unique vision of the world has kept him as “artist-in-residence on the bleeding edge” for decades. Iconic stars of style and music, such as The Rolling Stones, Aerosmith, The New York Dolls, Duran Duran, Guns ‘n Roses, Jane’s Addiction and others look to him and his “Rock Punk Couture” line to outfit their lives. Every custom piece created by Mr. Houghton for his clients are as inimitable as the legends that don them.
A true modern artist, Michael Houghton has also taken his passion to the contemporary art world. With the same attention to detail and fueled by the rock n’ roll that courses through his veins, he creates art that is meticulously created with his signatory “wallpapering” and stretching method. His other series include Animal, F1, and Pin ups, each with his signature skull and raven imagery. His shows have been “the place to be” with the who’s who of the fashion and music world in attendance.
Mr. Houghton has now embarked on his newest journey, synthesizing all of his art, music and design talents to create one-of-a-kind environments and experiences, transporting and immersing visitors into the world of rock-punk-wild gypsy hedonism.
For the first time ever, those who really love it – will finally be able to really LIVE it.
