WAVELENGTH II proudly presents the recent work of 18 contemporary artists and designers active in
the US, Europe and China. By bringing together conceptual fashion pieces, visual arts, jewelry, sculpture
and multimedia installations, the exhibition illustrates a global trend in consumerism and lifestyle - the
integration of Art, Fashion and social life.
Consumers are reassessing their priorities and reflecting on their lifestyle: what they truly value through
the act of purchasing. Many artists and designers, as opinion shapers, have actively involved in this wave
of revolution.
WAVELENGTH II depicts for the increasing prominence of aesthetics, sustainability and authenticity.
It reveals a trend evolving towards the elimination of boundaries between art and design - the work is
treated as a vehicle of concept regardless of functionality or categorization. Garments and jewelry pieces
are indistinguishable from sculptures or installations, rising above the status conveyed by label or
possession.
Meanwhile, the exhibition is infused with daily life aspects. Applicable technologies such as
biochemistry, digital rendering and facial recognition have been incorporated into creation process.
Artists reveal their fascination in everyday objects and pop culture, embracing, ridiculing or simply
making observations of consumerist society. Nothing concludes better than a large scale embroidery
made entirely by hand with traditional French technique, yet full of emojis and contemporary art
references.
Apart from artwork display, WAVELENGTH II consists of a pop-up store space within the gallery and
a week of events including panel discussions and workshops. Bringing together Art and Fashion
exhibitions, designer boutiques and social gatherings, it creates a sensational experience for future
