VANTAE / COLLECTION 01

THE UNSEEN

Things that remain after someone leaves. Six forms move through an almost residential interior: pale walls, concrete, large windows and long shadows. Rain beyond the windows holds the room in stillness. The garment, rather than the spectacle, remains the subject. This setting is an editorial reconstruction, not a recovered location record.

00:17

At 00:17 the lights came on. Seventeen garments appeared in a sequence lasting just under twelve minutes. There were no invitations in the room, no programme, and no visible name attached to the direction of the show. This account is reconstructed from the surviving photographs and a single inventory sheet.

AUTUMN / WINTER

THE UNSEEN

The audience sat along the edges of a room rather than facing a runway. Six figures crossed it, one at a time, without a prescribed direction. Each wore a form from The Unseen. Between passages, the room was allowed to remain empty. No final walk followed. The last image was the room itself.
