Sagil Ilyas Md. Amin @sagil.mdamin

aims to bring together all of their artistic media and practices.
The body at the core draped in sound, movement and clothing crafted for this very purpose while questioning their queer SWASIAN identity and its placement in the current societal context. Furthermore, they explore the liminal states of the body, its objectification and how softness can become a toll for radical resistance.

Blanca Bianchi @blancabianchi

is showing her collection Attention Panorama, a playful exploration of the history of display and the production of desire. It examines ideological and historical connections, translating them through materiality, construction and styling.

Josefa Lüscher @j00sef44_

explores with her collection the relationship between material, silhouette and craftsmanship. Centered on the possibilities of jersey, she transforms stretched fabrics into unexpected textures, distorted volumes, and visual tension. The instinctive construction demonstrates technique beyond precision to challenge perception and evoke discomfort.
