When I was a child, I would explore the woods behind my house. I ventured alone, following a small creek. One winter day, I deviated from my usual path. As I walked, I heard a man shout. A pack of barking dogs ran toward me. I immediately dropped to the snowy ground and pretended to be dead. I held my breath. The dogs surrounded me, sniffed and snorted. I had never felt that kind of fear before, the fear of being eaten alive.

Employing Jesse Kanda's signature liquid textures and mutating figures, "Fluid Silhouettes" explores the experimental forms of their Spring 14' collections. Genderless bodies shift in shape and proportion, morphing into abstract translations of key men's and womenswear silhouettes. In sync with producer Arca's dystopian electronic soundtrack, their fluid transitions capture Spring's forward-looking take on androgyny.
