Coatyarn & MARINIČ Gašpar - educational partnership bewteen IFM and Givenchy

"The main focus of the project is the reclamation of the word Pansy which has been used as a slur to describe effeminate gay men. It is based around the work of young artist Łukasz Leja and his sexually explicit but somehow nostalgic and sad paintings. His online presence was combined with old couture Givenchy dresses in digital collages, to create new silhouettes that combine the feminine and masculine aesthetic."

“Produced as part of an EDUCATIONAL PARTNERSHIP between the MA program at IFM and GIVENCHY.”
