The following double-page is an artist study on the fashion designer that embodies the majority of my A Level Art coursework; Virgil Abloh.
Within this study I expressed why I had chosen to incorporate Abloh into my work as an up and coming fashion designer; from his work, experiences and influences as an architect to his ever-changing designs and even his work with musicians, all of which play a big part in my own admirations.
The page consists of a body of text exploring Abloh's work within fashion and architecture, touching upon the influences behind his work as well as his target audience and the aim behind his creations. I also speak about the influence of Miles Van Der Rohe's Farnsworth House on Abloh's designs.
The right side of the spread is made up of a series of pictures of two of Abloh's debut designs as a designer as well as a blueprint of Farnsworth House that Abloh draws upon throughout his designs; as seen by his use of parallel lines. Also visible is a recreation of the key element in Abloh's Spring/Summer 2015 collection influenced by street signs and architecture.
