SPRING SUMMER 2024

The palette and textures of the collection is inspired by the James Webb telescope’s picture of newfound galaxies, planets and stars, directly opposed to Madre Tierra’s earthy rocks, sand, bones, fossils, crystals and gold. Some garment resembles the crater surfaces of planets like Mars and the moon or colours that mimic Jupiter, Saturn and our sun. Metallic hues represent our Milky Way and shooting stars but also reference our ongoing obsession with Crystalline quartz and the metal Gold.

MILAN FASHION WEEK

As presented at Milan Fashion Week, 'Re-Trace, Re-Memory, Re-Set, Re-Culture' serves as a canvas for unravelling the threads that bind our collective origin stories, inviting us to examine the interconnections between art, science, spirituality, and cultural heritage. By exploring legends, archaeological discoveries, and visionary philosophy, this collection investigates how myths and shared narratives shape our understanding of human evolution, foster unity, and inspire positive change. By engaging with archaeology like Homo Naledi and myths of Crystal Skulls, the concept of the Phoenix, and the visionary perspectives of thinkers like Oscar Wilde and Credo Mutwa, our collection contemplates the potential for collective transformation and cultural redefinition. In a world where past, present, and future intertwine, art emerges as a bridge that connects our shared history with our aspirations for a harmonious world.
