'Untitled' by Jolibe
Transforming Jolibe’s garments and model into a series of geometric exercises, like Rorschach’s eponymous ink-blot test brought to life, the label’s video for Future Tense utilises film technique to the hilt to make it’s graphic point. With their mannequin spinning in white space, Jolibe’s camerawork amputates, multiplies and mirrors the cinematic image - subtle, slightly disorientating but fascinating, the film manages to simultaneously showcase, distort and disguise Jolibe's collection.
An inarguable source of art, of love for the beauty among fabrics, and patterns that waters my eyes.
