Coniunctio Oppositorum
Form globalization to individuality, by Francesca Paolin.
Francesca has been working on the concept of "double side" for a while, and the duality of globalization and individuality was a variety on the theme of juxtaposition.
She was fascinated about how different ethnic groups develop similar, but at the same time different, solution to the same problem. About the different interpretation of what is exotic if you live in America or in Asia. About the cultural substrate of history, that layer after layer, makes the personality of a country. About the meaning of colors.
She mixed bright and powder colors; she combined fabrics; she played with details.
"I wanted to investigate more about my double side, and to find another way to express myself and keep my style."
