project: hunt for hightech |
project: lucyandbart | ||
|---|---|---|---|
With a Hunt for Hightech Bart Hess made a collection of fake fur that touches on elements of fetishism, human instinct and new animal archetypes. With that collection he did not try to mimic real animal kingdoms but create a fantasy world of his own. The way this started was through the process of imagining fantasy animals; animals that could be genetically manipulated, part robot, part organic, how they would move in their environment and what they felt like to touch.

LucyandBart is a collaboration between Lucy McRae and Bart Hess described as an instinctual stalking of fashion, architecture, performance and the body. They share a fascination with genetic manipulation and beauty expression. Unconsciously their work touches upon these themes, however it is not their intention to communicate this. They work in a primitive and limitless way creating future human shapes, blindly discovering low – tech prosthetic ways for human enhancement. |

project: skin king |
commisioned by | ||
|---|---|---|---|
In collaboration with Walter van Beirendonck Whether twisting gender, addressing climate change or advocating safer sex, Walter Van Beirendonck's design philosophy has always had a politicised bent naturally, or perhaps unnaturally the animation skin king is no exception. The animation is commissioned by SHOWstudio, Nick Knight. |
Bart Hess is working for himself exploring several fields that straddle textile, fashion and animation, these fall within the commercial and art world.
