Arts Thread

The inspired film Black Swan is about the ballerina's longing for art toward perfection. In the movie, the ego of the ballerina collides with each other. The expression of "the desire that humans can have toward art" using ballet works drew attention. In particular, it was very impressive that the self in the almost last scene expressed the self's collision and victory. A bird in the form of a human was shown using video editing, from which the inspiration for the work began. I wanted to show the twisted self and desire of one character.

The "Reform-Uniform" project, initiated in 2016, sought to re-envision the very concept of "uniform." Traditionally, uniforms denote the standardized attire worn by members of a particular organization. However, this prevailing uniformity had the potential to stifle the individuality and creativity of students who donned these garments daily. What if these uniforms could become a canvas for self-expression, a means to inject vitality and character into the monotony of school attire? In collaboration with a dedicated team, a collection of school uniforms was conceptualized, each tailored to represent distinct personality archetypes. Drawing inspiration from the world of literature, such as the iconic houses of Gryffindor and Slytherin in the Harry Potter series, we crafted a series of uniforms that not only upheld the ethos of academic dress but also celebrated the diversity and uniqueness of each student. These uniforms, divided by personality, served as a visual testament to the individuality of students, fostering a sense of belonging to a community while allowing them to express their authentic selves. The "Reform-Uniform" project not only reimagined the conventional notion of uniforms but also breathed life into the very fabric of self-expression and unity within the school environment.

Every year, 66,000 women are violently killed globally. This number weaves a thread of silence, intricately intertwined in the fabric of our world, a tapestry of indifference formed through habituation. Within our collective silence, these threads remain concealed, their intricacies hidden. Yet now, it's imperative to unravel the familiarity and confront the vanished. This collection delves into the stories of women who have disappeared into the abyss of domestic violence and abuse, their narratives muffled by the resounding echoes of a society that, at times, turns a blind eye. Bringing forth the silent stories of women oppressed by the forces of gender and ignorance, these designs strive to reveal the physical and emotional suppression they endure and the metaphorical masks they bear. Embedded within the intricate web of power, some threads choose to bind, while others veil the truth. For those suffering in silence, the aim is to amplify their voices through the medium of fashion. This collection endeavors to expose the weight of their oppression, their emotional instability, and the multitude of hidden stories. Using various chains and fabric manipulation, the designs articulate their struggle, and like the threads, the masks represent their silent presence. Although diverse, this chain collection shares a commonality, highlighting the somewhat grotesque hybrid and heterogeneous nature of our world, and proclaiming with resilience: "WE’RE HERE."

Inspiration for the collection comes from the Luminous post-future. Pandemic started, What will the future look like? Many experts said that a lot of things would change. The more the future comes, the more blends the boundary of Gender will be and it will pursue non-face-to-face. Also, The boundaries between women's and men's clothes, which we commonly stereotyped, will be torn down, and practical clothes will likely survive. It's a post-future people, seen in the dark night in my eyes.
