“Enduring, not ultimate form”: from “Industrieform” to Red Dot (1980 - 1997)
Shiver With Cold
The pieces of this garment collection simulates the Chinese ink and wash painting effect by dyeing leftover white fabrics and covering the yellowed portions with pigments to give them a new look. Different types of fabrics are then layered to depict a melancholic mood, as Chinese paintings are typically composed with a wide range of emotions.
All of the garment pieces can be mixed and matched. The collection’s primary colour scheme is black, grey, and white—but with a dark red tone added for embellishment, referring to another poem about plum blossoms and holding your beliefs even in the face of adversity. The rugged silhouette portrays a guarded appearance of hidden emotions. Shiver with Cold implies that hope will be found after the winter, and that a better future awaits after each adversity.
