‘Untitled’ by Aleksandra Olenska
Inspired by the stop-motion animation work of Jan Svankmajer, Aleksandra Olenska’s Future Tense film is, in her own words, a short fashion fantasia, a fairytale flurry of mirrored legs, refracted light and waltzing perfume bottles. Featuring both her own designs and the objects that inform and inspire her work, Olenska’s film motivates otherwise inanimate fashion bibelots into unabashed and truly joyous movement – surely the point of any excursion into fashion film?
