"LINES"

“LINES”

IN THIS SERIES, SOFIEN ABED EXPLORES AND REINTERPRETS THE LINE IN ALL ITS FORMS. A SYMBOL OF STRUCTURE AND DIRECTION, THE LINE HERE BECOMES A FIELD OF EXPERIMENTATION, A GRAPHIC LANGUAGE THAT IS REINVENTED IN EACH PIECE.

IT UNDULATES, BREAKS, STRAIGHTENS UP. SOMETIMES FLUID AND UNTAMED, SOMETIMES RIGID AND IMPOSING, IT IS TRANSFORMED INTO CHECKS, DECONSTRUCTED STRIPES, HYPNOTIC PATTERNS THAT BLUR THE BOUNDARIES BETWEEN ORDER AND CHAOS.

EACH SILHOUETTE PLAYS WITH THESE TRACES, MERGING RIGOR AND MOVEMENT, BALANCE AND RUPTURE. STRUCTURED JACKETS ADOPT CLEAR AND ASSERTIVE LINES, WHILE DRAPED MATERIALS EVOKES AN ELUSIVE FLUIDITY.

THROUGH LINES, SOFIEN ABED PUSHES THE LIMITS OF TEXTILE GRAPHICS AND SIGNS A COLLECTION WHERE THE LINE BECOMES EXPRESSION, REVOLT AND METAMORPHOSIS.
