Niek Pulles recently sent me this experimental video piece with stretch fabrics. He just graduated at the Design Academy Eindhoven, with this project making up one of the modules in his final year.
It is a short visual work which originates from the brief to create an inspiration movie for the fashion industry. This piece looks into the concept of how we as a society cover over and patch up our most valuable assets, our purest form, our bodies. Reshaping and rebranding them to create something we are not. Stretch, on your skin, the feeling of being protected. Smooth and unexpectedly movements, rapidly made color explosion, shaped by coincidence.
