“Division by Zero” is an experimental unisex collection that makes the principle of a paradox visible. It’s a statement that clearly contradicts itself, yet could still be true. Just as it’s impossible to share an apple with people who don’t exist, a number that can be divided by zero is a mathematical paradox.
Silhouettes, materials and details are based on digital “yes”s and “no”s, ones and zeros. The key element of the collection is a simple rectangle. It’s made elastic by incisions and fitted to the body in complex structures and silhouettes, all made without producing any waste. The graphic aesthetic is heightened by black, white and red colours. The idea of relativeness is central to the collection. The same item of clothing looks different on a woman than it does on a man. The “Division by Zero” concept was also used to design a digital pattern, costume jewelery, shoes, and a size-adjustable backpack.
