Rum Punch Co-Founder and Chief Designer Rukshika Fernando Seneviratne collaborated with local artists Ruwangi Amarasinghe, Hash Bandara and Umanga Samarasinghe for the pop art inspired prints which were influenced by the work of Roy Lichtenstein, the American pop artist who became a leading figure in the new art movement alongside Andy Warhol and James Rosenquist. Lichtenstein was struck by the comic strip and often took inspiration from comic books and advertising for tongue in cheek social commentary. 

The prints embody the headily vibrant colour palette that both Rum Punch and pop artare known for. “For us as artists and designers, working with pop art as inspiration was a design dream come true – it was an amazing and fun experience,” says Rukshika. “As a brandRum Punch is about bold, vibrant colours and prints and silhouettes that make you feel ready to have the time of your life, and I think this collection encapsulates all of that perfectly.”
