The hunt for a seductive still Life

Concept:

A collection of bodypieces inspired by a quote from journalist Michael Pollan’s article “Love and Lies” for National Geographic: “How do you spread your genes around when you’re stuck in one place? [...] The Orchid offers no nectar or pollen reward; rather, it seduces male bees with the promise of bee sex [...]. The Orchid accomplishes its sexual deception by mimicking the appearance, scent and even the tactile experience of a female”.
Items items build a “sensorial” journey across the collection and embody empowering politicised femininity. Aiming to create a magnetic connection between the object and the audience, but at the same time of exploring the fashion accessory within the context of the home and the body.
