Neon Circus

Ladies and gentlemen. Welcome to the Neon Circus.

There are no animals here. No trapeze artists, no ringmaster in a top hat. What there is, is colour. Extraordinary, relentless, joyful colour — stacked high like an act that refuses to end, tumbling circles and geometry and neon shapes that somehow hold together in perfect, chaotic harmony.

This is abstract art the way it should be. Playful. Alive. A little bit ridiculous in the best possible way.

Melbourne artist Bert Ernie built this composition from pure form — circles, squares, typographic shapes layered into something that feels like it’s moving even when it’s standing still. Set against its background color, the neons explode off the fabric. The design runs down the right side of the swimsuit, front and back panels meeting at the seam to create a mirrored effect that’s genuinely unlike anything you’ll find at the shops.

Because this isn’t a print from a catalogue. It’s wearable art.

Wear it to the pool and watch people pretend not to stare. Wear it to the beach and own every square metre of sand around you. The Neon Circus doesn’t do subtle. It does spectacular.
