Words from Beat Poet
Pure Geometry,
modern and ancient collapse
into zen fragments
The autumn/winter component of the Zero Form collection continues the exploration of structure/unstructure begun in spring/summer.
Inspiration is drawn from '60's Brutalist concrete architecture and japanese zen traditions. Garments are studied in both 'soft' and 'hard' forms. For example the coat is considered in a structured version – the D-coat, a draping version – the Rag -coat, and a soft knitted wrap version – the Zen Cross-coat. Trousers range from rumpled leg shapes to straight stove-pipes to pleated Drape trousers. Jersey sections slice through sleeves and back panels to break up the structure. A concrete colour palette unifies these forms and a crushed textural theme provides a link between the unstructured and the structured.
