Freshness and Innovation on an Original Identity – Borba Margo

“Finding freshness and innovation in our everyday cliché through different angles of observation, the SS06 collection becomes a collage like composition of familiar sources in an unfamiliar way. When combining these elements their original identity ceases to exist and is replaced by a new foreign one.”

"The creation of selfhood or identification is achieved by means of the process of meeting and creating an illusion of wholeness rather than remixed parts.”

The clothes flirt with the thought of being an accessory, equipment flirt with the idea of being furniture. They are all confusingly inspired by each other to the point the place they mutate into distinctive and poetic objects.”
