About The Entry

This look removes fashion from the language of ornamentation and rewrites it as a narrative of bodily perception. The body apparatus and ring together form a wearable resonance system: the former receives, filters, and stabilizes frequencies, while the latter functions as an outlet of divinity, completing acts of direction, invocation, and release.

Drawing from Rebecca Horn’s concept of bodily extension, the work transforms fashion into a rewritten sensory organ. The metallic structures across the chest and shoulders resemble frozen sound waves, yet also externalized bones; the ocular structure weakens outward vision, redirecting perception inward. The body is no longer merely displayed, but becomes a unique field capable of receiving invisible vibrations.

At the same time, the work responds to Pauline Oliveros’s concept of “Deep Listening,” in which listening is understood as a bodily act. Sound is not treated as external background, but as vibration passing through body, space, and consciousness. Its healing quality here functions as a recalibration of the connection between art and the body , not to soften, but to reconstruct order within chaos.

The ring extends the meaning of the hand. As a ritualistic accessory medium, it transforms touch into an act of blessing and energetic transmission. Fashion thus becomes an interface between the body and the external universe — simultaneously armor and antenna; the body is protected, yet remains courageous enough to open itself toward broader frequencies.
