Design wendy andreu - photo ronald smits Wendy Andreu is a recent Design Academy graduate; she describes herself as a craft designer that communicates through the materials she is using. In her work she bridges matter, people and space and through her project ‘Regen’ she came up with a new and innovative way for producing water-proof garments without sewing or cutting patterns. Can you tell us a bit about your graduation collection ‘Regen’? ‘Regen’ (‘rain’ in Dutch) was born two years ago when I was experimenting with rope and latex.

I found out that the latex could get stuck into the cotton fibers and therefore « glue » them together. Before coming to Eindhoven, I studied metal craftsmanship at Ecole Boulle. I am working hands-on most of the time, materializing the ideas I have in my mind. I barely draw on a piece of paper; I would rather sketch in 3 dimensions. Next to this, I feel that inspiration cannot be always found at the museum or into books but everywhere in life. Britt Berden. TALENTS. TALENTS. TALENTS. TALENTS. TALENTS. TALENTS. TALENTS. TALENTS.

The curators of MU want to try and feed, trigger, punch or tickle people in their “For Play, Shaping Sexuality” exhibition, so the visitor’s imagination starts sparkling.

Physicality and imagination are the two themes For Play is centred around. Co-curators Sanne Muiser and Tom Loois often miss the kind of spontaneity and inventiveness that can make sex such good fun. Philosopher Martha Nussbaul argues that shame originates from a sense of incompleteness, of a lack of control in her work Hiding from Humanity.

Contemporary artist Nick Verstand collaborated together with digital design studio Onformative and spherical projections experts Pufferfish to develop this enchanting interactive installation called ANIMA.

ANIMA explores the nature of living things. The interactive art installation investigates how humans emotionally relate to an artificial entity. By the use of a single projector coupled with a hemispherical lens the spherical imagery is achieved which emanates from inside the object. Both image and sound are generated in real-time, based on the entity’s contingent perception of our presence. How would you describe yourself as an artist? I think my approach is quite different from the 'traditional artist'. How did your background in music influence your project? I got into electronic music at an early age, starting playing and producing records around my 19th birthday. What fascinates you about designing a project like ANIMA?

Can you describe your creative process? Always! Nickverstand. “It is a tough industry out there, and to be honest, one that seems built on a dying model, thanks to the digital age we are in,” comments Rebecca Morter, one half of London based fashion house: Rein. An echo, resoundingly in tune, with the overarching sentiment outlined in Li Edelkoort’s Anti-Fashion Manifesto: asking the fashion industry to suit-up, and accept that the once entrenched, tumultuous turnover of “fast-fashion” systems are obsolete, as we embrace a brave new world of personal expression, within a savvy, socially connected, digitally driven, marketplace; one with increasingly elevated expectations.

Here, #ootd and #fwis hashtags become the building blocks of brand stories, and for the consumer, self-actualisation is as valuable as any monetary currency: the “statusphere” of aligning oneself to a cause, or belief, by wearing and sharing; clothing as a vehicle for expression, that goes beyond the aesthetic.

Who or what inspired yourself and Gemma to « make it rein » ? “Romanticism is precisely situated neither in choice of subject nor exact truth, but in the way of feeling.” Charles Baudelaire Since the dawn of time, black has a lot to tell, it expressed mourning, poverty, denial, revolt and it exalted the avant-garde and haute-couture. Both rive gauche and rive droite. From lacerated and studded leather to the perfection of the little black dress, from brutal bondage clothing to the gorgeous prom dress, from mods’ modest turtlenecks to the monks’ modern hoods, the same black made a lot of ink flow, black or almost black too.

It is able to express love and romanticism as well as hate and racism, in equal proportion and with the same ardor. Black matter will be forever engraved in our teenage souls; film noir, black coffee, the black jacket, pinot noir. Today, black is lustrous and magnificent, swallow-tailed, raven or horsehair, is seen in lace of a domination mask, veil of seduction and burka of discretion.
