Anyone who has ever visited Giverny, the place Monet lived and painted his legendary water lily masterpieces, will most likely agree that there’s something disjointing about its realness. You are pressured to think about how the artist arrived at his impressions. Today, Andrew Gn proposed his personal impression of the work, whereas incorporating graphic influences from Asia (his heritage) and Memphis (the Eighties design motion, not the American metropolis) to supply a group that was, properly, spectacular.
Gn opened with a black-and-white wrap coat, its pockets and belt demarcated by topstitching, exhibiting visitors one thing stark earlier than swinging round to his massive reveal of colour. This was adopted by some expressions of asymmetry, in above-the-knee attire and skirts, earlier than the Memphis theme was launched through a fil coupe brief-sleeve costume with snakeskin appliqués. By the time the primary glimpse of Monet arrived, Gn had already breezed via a flirtation with Fauvism in addition to two swish robes enlivened by neon cherry blossoms and accented with enamel flower appliqués. And if water lilies averted showing spinoff, it was as a result of they have been really painted within the studio and modified digitally. Obi-type belts lent continuity to an amazing variety of print variations, together with ikebana florals, however often they disrupted the free spirit of Gn’s already flattering silhouettes, or else they overpowered the fineness of his prints.
Gn defined backstage that he would not usually gravitate towards allover beading, but rendering Giverny with couture-stage workmanship was his final method of paying respect. And to observe the strands swish forwards and backwards on the sleeves of Gn’s remaining clothes left an enduring impression that conjured the rippling of that well-known pond.
