Coming out of the shell

Coming out of the shell

Yue’s inspiration holds influence from the abstract expressionist style of John Chamberlain’s sculptures and organic shapes of Alexander Archipenko’s paintings. The refined version of these shapes, merged with irregular fabric manipulations to produce 3D structures, meant to emphasize the process of transition through exaggerated, oversized and feminine silhouettes. Hardness is transmitted through elements of deconstructions from tailored menswear, combined with the stiffness of thick wool fabrics.
