Iris Van Herpen Collaboration
My collaboration with avant-garde fashion designer Iris Van Herpen involved translating microscopic and biological forms into wearable art. Drawing inspiration from the intricate structures of bacteria, viruses, and cellular networks, my sculptural aesthetic informed the design of her Earthrise collection. This creative dialogue bridged the worlds of science, sculpture, and high fashion, with my work providing a conceptual and visual foundation for pieces that explore transformation, fluidity, and organic complexity. The collaboration demonstrated how scientific imagery can inspire radical new forms in fashion, and how art rooted in biology can engage broad audiences through unexpected and innovative mediums.
