Short Description
This tuxedo is placed within a radical environment.
Created through the deliberate choice of Antarctica as a location, the work explores the contrast between human aesthetics and a cold landscape, entering into a visual dialogue with it.
The silhouette is grounded in fashion realism and could physically exist, despite being conceived and created by me through a generative process. Its visual language references the classic tuxedo –a form whose black-and-white structure echoes the natural graphic patterns of penguins inhabiting this region. A yellow accent within the image functions as a subtle visual rhyme with the characteristic color details of their plumage.
A film-like aesthetic is intentionally employed as an artistic device, enhancing the sense of presence, materiality, and an authentic moment.
