SHIELD = PROTECTION
This is the theme chosen by Angelo Figus, Nicola Miller, and Carrie Hollands for the new Research Space at Pitti Filati 95, where we are also present.
A theme born from the uncertainty of global political, climatic, economic, and cultural scenarios, reflecting on the instinctive gesture of "shielding oneself." Just like in winter when we wear warm knitwear to protect ourselves from the cold.
Once again, nature is the main source of inspiration, and from nature emerged the four variations of this theme:
∙EGG-center evokes the search for harmony and perfection, inspired by the egg, a symbol of rebirth and renewal.
∙SHELL-ter evokes the search for beauty and protection, inspired by the shell, a symbol of prosperity, fertility, luck, and abundance.
∙BUG-nificent evokes the search for transformation and regeneration, inspired by beetles.
∙WOOD-ness evokes the search for shelter and well-being, inspired by the tree, a symbol of life and constant adaptation.
Curious to see how we have transformed these suggestions into knitwear creations? Here are some images from our exhibition.
You can find us in Florence, at the Fortezza da Basso, until tomorrow.
