DOUNIAH & HIGH JOHN – NEIGHBOURHOOD / I MISS

Posted on 2020-09-28

“The sun goes down and the full moon shows itself. I wash my face in familiar waters while Gnawa rhythms revive my memories. I think of the things that I miss and experience them at the same time. It’s Amazigh New Year. This is where my journey starts.”

Douniah is a singer and songwriter based in Berlin. She was born in Morocco and grew up in Hamburg. Douniah started making music at the age of 15, writing poems and short stories, she taught herself how to play guitar and started performing in local venues a year later. her sound represents what she grew up with: Indigenous Moroccan music, hip-hop and all kinds of jazz. Starting last year, she released songs with Farhot and Cap Kendricks and is one half of the duo Douniah & High John who released their debut album “Dream Baby” in November 2019 on Melting Pot Music. High John’s warm, lo-fi beats and Douniah’s rich, soul-souked voice interact in a very natural way, combining R&B elements, Jazz, Soul and poetry.

Tasya Vos (Andrea Riseborough) is a corporate agent who uses brain-implant technology to inhabit other people’s bodies, driving them to commit assassinations for the benefit of the company.

When her hapless but dangerous cousin Regina (Chloe Farnworth) messes up a kidney delivery, chaos descends on the Arkansas hospital as Mandy and Regina frantically try to secure a replacement organ through any means necessary.

RON NAGLE – LINCOLNSHIRE SQUIRE

Posted on 2020-09-28

Ron Nagle’s sculptures might measure only the size of a clenched fist, but their intricate, dynamic panoramas evoke planetary domains. Stuccoed façades meet twiggy appendages, while slick, oily layers ooze over the sharp edges of perfect, geometric blocks. Meticulously crafted out of arrangements of texturally and formally contrasting elements, Nagle’s abstractions are both other-worldly and entirely of this one: they evoke a range of influences reaching between mid-century hot-rod cars of the US West Coast, and the composite sensibility of Japanese shibui and wabi-sabi. His new works for Modern Art oscillate between conveying a sense of interior and exterior. They may at once appear loosely like still-life landscapes – conveying a sense of the familiar outdoors, and at the same time describe something as specific as the details of the internal architecture of an unknown place, as though plucked from a dream.

Opposite – Based in SF, 2017

Y-3 NOTOMA

Posted on 2020-09-28

Adidas and Yohji Yamamoto return for the latest release of Y-3’s Fall/Winter 2020 collection. Inspired by the coming together of built-for-purpose details and Yohji’s signature aesthetic codes, the Y-3 NOTOMA boot champions exploration, adventure, and all-weather protection. Challenging preconceived notions of the familiar, the striking new silhouette merges ultra-functional design with rugged aesthetics inspired by the outdoors.

Built with function firmly at its heart, the Y-3 NOTOMA has been designed with a number of all-weather details. Featuring a lace closure, EVA midsole, and rubber outsole, the rugged silhouette allows the wearer to traverse both city and trail terrains with ease. Meanwhile, the inclusion of PrimaLoft® insulation fabric provides elevated warmth, even in the most wet conditions.

Continuing the seasonal theme of forward-thinking all-weather design through an avant garde lens, the Y-3 NOTOMA boot is available in two unique colourways. Made-up in an all-black woven textile upper with night-grey hits, the first colorway draws on Yohji’s traditionally monochromatic palette. Then, leveraging the visual codes of protective gear, the next colorway reimagines the high-top silhouette in an all-over khaki canvas upper with contrasting fox orange accents.

Launching on October 1st, the Y-3 NOTOMA silhouette is available globally at adidas.com/y-3, in store and through a selection of retailers.
