- THE WALLS ARE CLOSING IN BODY AND MIND RESPOND BY SEPARATING FROM THEMSELVES, LAYERS PEEL AWAY LIKE OLD PAINT, EXPOSING A NEW FORM THAT LIES UNDERNEATH -
RIFT is a collection made with inspiration from the anatomical body and how it reacts in different situations, mentally and physically.
Claustrophobia, psoriasis and the idea of the shedding of skin have given inspiration to various shapes, textures and silhouettes. Using imagery from this inspiration, three looks were created in a lineup made in a collage-sketching technique using only tape.The collection is focused on experimental materials and innovative techniques. The leather jackets are made from hand-dyed Swedish salmon and perch skins.
The collection is an exploration into finding new ways to use materials and give them an entirely new surface and quality. The garments are raw, androgynous, and bold, but give an impression of lightness and simplicty.
