V&A - NAOMI in Fashion

Across the two days of Prada Mode Seoul, three of Seoul's celebrated film directors, curated by Lee Sook-Kyung brought their individual visions to life.

Jeong Da-Hee's installation ‘Paper, Light, Ghost’ transformed a library space into a room of drawings, playing with light and shadow, whilst Yeon Sang Ho recreated his work on the popular Netflix series "Hellbound" that originated as a webtoon and short film, and Kim Jee Woon explores the nostalgia of old Seoul and a journey inside faded memory in "The Shadows of Faded Old Love".

Conversations spanning culinary culture, absence, mortality were held with esteemed speakers including film critic Kim Haery and Korean author Muru with a special curatorial musical 'janchi' performance by Kim Kira.

I am proud to have lead the design of that event for Kennedy London.

 

The first exhibition of its kind celebrating the extraordinary career of fashion model Naomi Campbell, highlighting her impactful collaborations with leading global designers and photographers, her activism, and her extensive cultural influence.

Showcasing iconic designs from fashion luminaries like Alexander McQueen, Azzedine Alaia, BOSS, Burberry, Chanel, Dolce & Gabbana, Versace, Jean Paul Gaultier, John Galliano, Karl Lagerfeld, Kenneth Ize, Torisheju Dumi, Valentino, Virgil Abloh, Vivienne Westwood, Yves Saint Laurent, and many more.

It was an immense privilege to join the team as the lead architect and work closely with Njoya Studio to craft a design that beautifully narrates Campbell's story.
