Throughout the process of research and experimentation, I can conclude and distinguish my study is about how to utilise the good between art and fashion. Using fashion as a commercial tool to approach, educate the audience about art philosophies. In reverse, using fine art to refresh the fashion theme.​ In particular, I focus on Modernism art's philosophies and the composition in visual art.

​

- I viscerally love to collect objects from found objects to art pieces and garments, because I am interested in an object’s appearance, matter or it’s information. With the unconscious mind, I arrange and recreate these human leftover or waste into an aesthetic context.

 

- Another aspect of this project is improvisational and participatory space: How to be improvised to utilise and recreate an arbitrary space into an environment that allows the audience to engage with it in order to create a personal special experience.

​

In terms of Modernism art philosophy, I am concentrating on the idea of Dadaism, Bauhaus and Surrealism, because of the interaction between their socialism idea and the human revolution. The main idea of modernism was to reject past traditions of artworks and to encompass the beginning of a new ‘modern’ world in their art forms. The modernist artist represents a wide range of personal visions and experiences. This is a significant transaction in the fine art timeline, Artist no longer followed the orthodox scheme, that made them question the solidity of the 'real' world and the reliability of perception. During this time, eventho the border between fine art and applied art was still stiff, the intersection between these 2 arts has a good start. The artist during this period has never been more creative than ever. Marcel Breuer described his chair as "my most extreme work . . . the least artistic, the most logical, the least 'cozy' and the most mechanical. 

​

Although a fashion house and designer definitely achieved a reputation and signature in their careers, there was not a sustainable attitude and value. The idea of contemplation in fashion consumption is faded. What is happening in the fashion industry urges me to explore for the gem. I am truly being enlightened by these modernist art's philosophies. The audience and consumer can view the nowness of fashion with minimalism's lense. A piece that was made for a farmer in 2000 can still be worn and utilized for an officer in 2030. The nowness in here is people's observation about the appearance of that piece at this moment. Therefore, we need to ask ourselves about the real value of our clothes. 

​

- There is a series of sketching, collaging, photo-graming showed in this blog and sketchbook. Instead of browsing for shoots' concept on social media and directly using them for a shoot, I tend to visualise the sub and obj inspired me recently into a piece of surface. That is an archive that helps me to keep everything in my train of thought from a general idea to the use of textiles, material. I mostly use it to work on Set Design + Art Direction for photoshoots from small scale product shoot to landscape human scale.
