Depiction of human animalistic nature in the fashion design collection Metamorphosis
Vilnius Academy of Arts
Associate prof. Dainius Bendikas
The collection Metamorphosis is inspired by the idea that people lose the true meaning of life in pursuit of fleeting pleasures and blindly serving conformism. This phenomenon is compared with the consumer habits that exist in modern society, which only further alienate the individual from his existential goals. Inspiration for the collection came from objects associated with Lithuanian resorts and the routine of holidaymakers. Metamorphosis highlights the ability of fashion design to reflect on the problems of society and promote a critical approach to the modern way of life.
