VOID OF DISCOVERY
COLLABORATIVE
PERHAPS ITS NOT ABOUT ESCAPING THE VOID,
BUT THE JOURNEY OF SELF DISCOVERY.
Based on a celebration of harmony between manmade graphics and organic forms came “Void of Discovery”, a collection made as part of fashion collaboration between menswear (Ashna Patel, Andras Prokop, Andy Riley, Eleven Yang) and textiles students (Zsuzanna Kallo, Win Lueangworphan, Yuqin Shou, Sarah Newsome, Christina Ryu, Amber Young, Sohye Choi, Elin Karacagil, Dahye Yi) for Adidas A/W18
The collection initially draws inspiration from ‘ Svalbard ’, photographic series of a Norwegian photographer, Mette Tronvoll, investigating the Arctic Archipelago.
Through visual exploration, the idea of a physical and emotional void being found during Arctic expedition began to form. The concept of wondering through space and time to find purpose, something to hang on to, ultimately filling the void, became a core of our collection.
