The interventions forged between Miu Miu and contemporary artists are never devised as embellishment to fashion: independent and free, they evince a congruent intellectual viewpoint, each speaking about the present.
This season, Qatari-American artist Sophia Al-Maria situates the Miu Miu show within a landscape of technological ruins, an imaginary history invented inside the Palais d’Iéna created in collaboration with OMA.
Al-Maria’s specially-created work, Gravity & Grace, depicts a confrontation between reality and fantasy – a reflection of the intention of her body of work as a whole. Through this, she explores the meaning of storytelling, through the history of humanity to today – to transmit the past, share the present and imagine the future.
