Description

DESIGN CONCEPT

"Absurd Theatre" refers to the "humanly impossible" rather than "logically impossible", meanwhile, embracing the absurd condition of human existence, continuously explore it, respond to it for your imagination and meaning.

This collection is inspired by the relation between the surrealistic creatures from Shan Hai Jing (Classic of the Mountains and Seas) and extraterrestrial intelligence, such as various beasts and bizarre myths. However, the classic itself is complicated and full of mysteriousness, waiting to be explored. The collection "Absurd Theatre" attempts to deconstruct the relationship and cohabitation between the most surrealistic creatures and the realistic facts, and develop the idea based on the hypotheses of Chinese literature, mythology, unidentified material, and technology in order to apply the inspirations to create the valuable 'Structural Fashion".
