This work is part of a series that draws a parallel between the screen and knitting. Through a set of typographic experiments, the project questions the effect produced by using one or the other. Each piece is the occasion for the evocation or transposition of images from one media to the other. This piece explores relief knitting. A technique used in sock making is employed to form 3d pixels, thus taking advantage of some of the possibilities offered by the knitted fabric.

This work is part of a series that draws a parallel between the screen and knitting. Through a set of typographic experiments, the project questions the effect produced by using one or the other. Each piece is the occasion for the evocation or transposition of images from one media to the other. Here the fabric mimics the aspect of LED displays such as commonly found in buses. The piece takes the shape of a very long ribbon echoing the scrolling of the text on this kind of displays.

The series of photographs is presented shrouded in darkness, with only one or almost only one source of light, the verses of poems projected directly on the bodies of the posing models. This combination combines the worlds of typography and fashion, creating a unique visual experience.

The fashion industry is a master of weaving narratives that sell not just garments, but ideals—promising us a slice of originality, authenticity, and even concepts like peace, love, and sustainability. Slogans on clothing collections serve as powerful marketing tools, luring consumers with the allure of social responsibility and moral virtue. Yet, beneath the surface, questions linger about the tangible impact of these messages and the authenticity of mass-produced fashion.

The original pocket founds: astrology book, wrapping paper of a lemon fruit caramel, (diamond) card

While living in a prototype for the typical German small city, K 0105. took several circumstances and moods as an impetus to find mindful methods for escaping the alleged “nothingness”. The concept of the Flâneur served as an act of taking off one’s blinders of monotony and simultaneously finding the unknown beauty in the known cityscape, like the bold “DAS BAD” neon sign on the facade of the municipal swimming pool next door. On the garment itself, it opens up another process of rediscovering.

Collaborating artists Marie Walser and Louisa Grambole combine their specialities by experimenting with the placement and design of typography on garments. Analog and experimental they explore various methods how letters, words, sentences or even entire texts can be shown on the different parts of a long-sleeved white shirt. Beyond traditional paper mediums, clothing opens up endless possibilities of playing with different materials, textures and the dynamic relationship between text and body.

She is confused by her role as a woman. Zimile struggles with her self-discipline to self-actualize in the shadow of fulfillment culture and its disenchantment spiral. She is a typeface, textile pattern, work wear and an attempt at a self-portrait in one.
