JH Color Theory: The Surrealist Trio
We’re excited to announce the JH Surrealist Polishes, an exclusive nail polish set created in collaboration with The Metropolitan Museum of Art, created to commemorate the exhibition "Surrealism Beyond Borders," on view Oct. 11, 2021-Jan. 30, 2022 at the MET.
The three polishes in the set are inspired by a reconsidering of Surrealism's global breadth, exploring some of its iconic and symbolic motifs through pigment and palette.
Scroll on for more of the artworks on our polish mood board, pinned from the exhibition catalog.
