In todays time and age of perceived pluralism, all the while radicalization is growing at an increasingly fast pace, the zeitgeist demands: Make a choice, categorize, label!
With her bachelor’s collection “YES AND;” Alessa Scivoli proposes a counter strategy that challenges the viewer’s tolerance of ambiguity. Out of frustration with deliberate misunderstanding and a fascination with perspective shifting, visual metaphors emerge for “Staying with the trouble!” (D. Haraway).
Traditional clothing patterns blur at their defining edges, breaking open their predefined categories, optical illusions make reality glitch for a second – they want to be perceived, not categorized. The collection defies unambiguous interpretation: the space remains open, ambiguity palpable.
