About Gary James McQueen
\u200bGary James McQueen was first introduced to the fashion industry by his late uncle Alexander McQueen, who mentored and inspired him to be the artist he is today. Gary was employed as head textile designer for the Alexander McQueen Brand in 2005, where he experimented with how to integrate artwork with clothing design. He developed unique textile designs employing optical illusions while constantly pushing himself and the boundaries of what could be achieved using a 3D canvas. Gary’s artwork was featured in the Neplix documentary about Alexander McQueen, and he is responsible for the creation of the chrome skull, which became the iconic artwork for the Savage Beauty exhibit at the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
