The Slaying Mantis collection focuses on the rawness of humanity, often neglected due to distractions of rapid consumption and technological development in the capitalist culture we are absorbed in. Communist architecture inspires the oversize androgynous garment shapes of the dark fabrics and torn aesthetic knit. A praying mantis insect plays divine and diabolic roles which relates to the duality of human nature. The cannibalistic side of a mantis is the driving force behind the details in the knitwear and accessories.
