For Berlin Fashion Week, we suspended three large aluminum frames within a converted church. Each frame was adorned with flowers and foraged organic materials. Each frame was thematically tied to the panels of Hieronymus Bosch's The Garden of Earthly Delights, aligning with the clothing collection on display.

The “Eden” frame was adorned with lush ferns, woodland foliage, grasses, vines, and delicate wildflowers, creating an idyllic, lush garden setting. The “Sin” frame, referencing the central panel of the triptych, featured an array of exotic, vibrant flowers. This aimed to evoke a sense of indulgence and sensuality, with its voluptuous blooms capturing the essence of hedonistic pleasure. The “Hell” frame, reflecting the final panel, was draped in gnarled dead branches, Spanish moss, thistles, and wisteria blooms. This arrangement conjured a stark, desolate biome, evoking a sense of lifelessness and foreboding.

It was crucial that the aluminum frames remained visible through the floral elements, creating a striking contrast between the organic and the machined. This interplay of materials added depth to the installation, enhancing the thematic and visual impact of the venue.

A huge thank you to our assistants Hannes Gratz and Liam Barwick.
