Fashioneditorial: Creative Identity

This project was created from defining personal experiences and aims to explore the complex dimensions of human connections. In particular, it reflects feelings of helplessness, power dynamics and vulnerability that often remain unspoken in interpersonal relationships and settings.

In various contexts of life, be it at work, in everyday life or on the way to the train, I repeatedly observe and experience how feelings of defenselessness and the need for invisibility manifest themselves. A central element is the contrast between the desire to be seen, to be perceived as an equal, and the need to - preventively - hide. Covering up under a large hood or subtly used protective analogies on the fingernails are contrasted with striking silhouettes and deep necklines that emphasize the need for a carefree existence. Laser engravings into the fabric, similar to delicate tattoos, illustrate the dynamics that shape us and our relationships. A project based on personal experience, yet representing a large group of people who experience similar feelings and circumstances.
