‘Current Convention’ theme wanders around adaptation and evolution of the mindset of yesterdays to a new present/future which embraces a fuller spectrum of ways of being from gender and sexuality to expectations related to age, ability, lifestyle, diet, and beauty standards. Realizing that unity comes through diverse mindsets paves the path to shatter the conservatives.
​
The approach in creating each design in the collection is experimental. Finding ‘Harmony’ between contrasting graphical elements is the philosophy behind the collection.

the dark brown warp.
