Materia Moda is a more intimate reflection on maker/coder/model. There is a fashion sub-theme that runs throughout the collection, playing with notions of beauty, the viewer’s gaze and the model’s agency as engineer/technician. In curating this collection I was searching for moments of heightened, albeit paradoxical, tension between more obvious notions of beauty–grace and gesture of the model–to less obvious ones–crumbling, disintegrating, fragmented, complex surfaces and chaotic technology.
