A new generation of designers from HKU and Sint Joost Breda presents a personal fascination
​
Spread over the close locations of AG and Kunstliefde, 36 up-and-coming design talents built a special presentation. Unfortunately, due to the measures related to Covid, this exhibition cannot be visited live, but you can now experience the projects online via this website!
For a newly developed educational program based on What is Fashion? twenty third-years students of HKU Fashion Design and sixteen students of other specializations from HKU and Sint Joost Breda a explored and shaped personal fascination. In Signature Statements they present the results of a study with underlying themes such as belonging, identity, culture, religion and escapism. Their divergent visions are represented through various media, such as outfits, sculptures, photos, videos and installations, sometimes focusing more on the concept and others rather on the material effect is central. In doing so, the project provides a dynamic and picture of what concerns this new generation of designers, and how they want to position themselves in a rapidly changing world.
