Gustavo Lins Edition at L'ÉCLAIREUR, Paris
At the invitation of Porzellan Manufaktur Nymphenburg, Brazilian fashion designer and architect Gustavo Lins began to realise his own designs in porcelain at the beginning of 2007.
For his limited edition of porcelain busts fabrics are soaked in liquid porcelain mass and draped on life-size cardboard busts to which a thin coat of porcelain mass has also been applied.
The fabric and cardboard dissolve in the kilns as the porcelain hardens. The result: satin-white and one black busts of a sculptural nature – filigree and elegant objects that are located somewhere between apparel and sculpture. These were premiered at L'ÉCLAIREUR, Paris during the Haute Couture Show Paris on 26 January 2010.
