Fashion Rietveld: juli 2011

4 days of showing work, showing off, showing words, showing work, showing emotion, showing just showing.

The Graduationshow from Rietveld

I was there the first day, but had to leave again..

Too much emotion, i felt all this excitement, the pressure who was gone or still bubbling around, too much people, too much.

I was there the last day and checked out work which grapped me, is it because of color, the appearance, or is it because of the subject..

Just simple minded i went trough it and made picture of my favorites at that last day, the day which would end with Graduates going home with their diploma in their bag...

That was the right day for me to go there..its never too late. Even the last day made it.

Good things & Bad thoughts both were existing...
But as an overall opinion:
Rietveld pushes the boundaries that is for sure..
That is what you get out of it, that is the spirit.

Sometimes i did not understand it or did not even want to understand it..but with other things I had a connection at first view.
But that's the interesting thing of it...when people look at the same thing.
What happens..who do you get as your follower after that, who will wants to know even more and picks up a card to get curious home to check out your website.
There are people and people..and we were all there..but in how many livingrooms your card is lying now i can not tell...but i can show you a bit of the part which I took with me...
