VOLLEBAK FIREFLY JACKET

Posted on 2024-02-19

London-based outerwear brand Vollebak has just unveiled its latest creation, the Firefly Jacket — and it’s designed with two color-shifting membranes.

As one of Vollebak’s most future-facing designs to date, the jacket is infused with a phosphorescent compound, while the other is built with a fluorescent compound. This allows the jacket to change color throughout the day and night as the light conditions change around it; meaning the jacket can appear in a slew of shades, from copper and orange to glow-in-the-dark green and yellow.

ETIENNE CHAMBAUD – PRISM PRISON

Posted on 2024-02-12

Etienne Chambaud works across a wide spectrum of media, exploring the categories we impose on experiences, objects, and disciplines. His works, installations and exhibitions destabilize our notions of what art is and can be, how an artist conceptualizes and produces a work, and the form, function, and history of the exhibition. In 2022 the artist had a major solo exhibition at LaM, in Villeneuve-d‘Ascq, France. Chambaud’s work was included in the Okayama Art Summit 2019, curated by Pierre Huyghe.

Opposite – Mirror, 2024

Exhibition runs through to March 23rd, 2024

BAPE STA SS24

Posted on 2024-02-12

Since its 2002 debut, the BAPE signature BAPE STA sneaker has become a streetwear imprint across numerous colorways and constructions – with leather being a key driving textile. Now for the Spring/Summer 2024 season, the brand is bringing back its core BAPE STA silhouette in patent leather.

The re-introduced sneakers sees BAPE STA’s signature design. However, the brand has tossed up the shoe in three new colorways featuring white/red, white/black and white/gray. With the re-introduction, BAPE presents colorways that are striking yet classically clean. On each shoe the patent leather appears in white while the colored portion sees calf leather constructions.

TAO HUI – WE, ENTERTAINMENT

Posted on 2024-02-05

Tao Hui is best known for his immersive video and flm works that play on the storytelling tropes of cinema and television, as well as the narrative formats of social media channels. Spanning a variety of media, We, Entertainment is divided into four distinct sections that together represent both a personal psychological
journey and an examination of the broad societal implications of identity as it relates to gender, class, ethnicity, and cultural biases (fuelled, for example, by dichotomies of urban/rural, North/ South). As Tao‘s work makes clear, media emerges as a powerful force in this dynamic of contested identities, both as a destabilizing and normative infuence, but also with liberating and even restorative potential.

Opposite – The Fall (Green), 2022

Exhibition runs through to February 10th, 2024
