That means sitting down with a group of this year’s @mafcsm graduate students that instead of doing their big razzmatazz show physically during LFW have presented their work virtually in an experience housed online (link in bio), with @michelelamy__ ’s hypnotic voiceover bringing you into their universe. “I DARE YOU…” - I found it interesting the different approaches and aesthetics that emerged. Some took to isolation and confronting themselves with gusto. Like Elisa Trombatore @dreaming_eli and her subversion of female gaze via the pole dance. Or @Genevieve_Florence_Devine and her bricolaged garments, layered with memories. Bedroom creation manifesting in intimate ways that we’ll still crave post pandemic. - Or maybe it’s ok to revel in isolation and the melancholy of it. Keith Mosberger certainly did with his rumpled, bias-cut, melding into bed tailoring and slip dresses. To hide away in these clothes feels cathartic. - But some took the sign of these times on a leftfield path. Antonio Castro @ant.oniocastro imagined a Portuguese pagan winter solstice ritual of initiating boys into a glitchy Zoom party. Their textiles, which Castro either up cycled or sourced from factories near his hometown, are spliced and cut, undelineated by gender or historicism. They reflect perhaps a newfound fluidity in creativity that will have emerged from this year. - These are designers who have had to create in a vacuum, without physical interaction with their peers and under extraordinary circumstances. They’ve adapted, manoeuvred this mind fuck and emerged triumphant - maybe better equipped to work in a new normal, whatever that may be」3月30日 20時54分
