"The party is over. Crumpled wrapping paper, tangled ribbons, piled up and thrown away. This is where +1 takes root: in this offstage space, this behind-the-scenes of celebration. Packaging fades from view as quickly as it appears. Ephemeral.
Between “détournement” and an ode to contemplation, +1 questions the ordinary and the things that tell our stories. Wrapping paper, ribbons, and garbage bags become the very framework of the garments. Packaging is transformed into structure, volume, and material.
+1 thus paints a bittersweet portrait of a contemporary still life. +1 is that new candle which, year after year, gradually replaces the sweet taste of childhood with the harsher taste of time passing.
+1 shifts our gaze toward what usually goes unseen."
