Cirkus Cirkör

   

Circus artists often strive to make the impossible possible. Is striving for world peace an impossible quest? Can the desire for change create change? Can a worldwide knitting for peace movement make a difference? It is easy to give up when confronted with one's own insignificance in comparison to the world's greatness and complexity. Nevertheless, each movement begins with the individual. In this show, we explore the meaning of our aspiration and we'll find out if it's possible to knit peace. Cirkus Cirkör

Lisa Smirnova

Lisa Smirnova's collaborative, 'The Artist at Home' collection is a series of garments embellished to look as though they are paint damaged so that the clothes themselves become unique works of art.

"Artist At Home" New collection from Olya Glagoleva's eco-friendly brand GO in collaboration with Lisa Smirnova, a talented artist from Moscow. Artist At Home is a story about the creative process of an artist which has been told through the language of textile. Fabrics used in the collection are cashmere, organic Indian hemp & cotton, 80's denim jeans and vintage towels sourced from London's famous Portobello Road; as well as plaid blankets from Flea markets in Wales. The collection tells the story of a painter whose studio and her home is a single space, where both home and work clothing mix together. The story of the creative process will captivate you and transport you to the artist's parallel reality. Every garment is made only once, each decorated with hand embroidery in the unique style of Lisa Smirnova. The clothes themselves are pieces of art, lovingly created in a process that spans up to 100 hours each. In keeping with the GO tradition, every piece will be packed in a separate box made from recycled wood with detailed information about the item and a small book included with the full story of the creation.
