In Parallel: Between the liminal

11am–5pm,
FREE, drop-in

A black, woven-texture dress on a mannequin, topped with a lampshade, stands on a polished wooden floor. To its left, a bronze sculpture of a nude female figure stands on a pedestal. Two other mannequins wearing dresses and lampshade headpieces are visible in the background, near arched windows.

In Parallel: Between the Liminal is curated by Kingston University BA Fashion Promotion & Communications students.  The show invites you to explore ideas of contrast and polarity and is inspired by, and includes work from ‘Absence/Presence’ a project by MA Fashion students in which they created designs exploring monochrome, texture, silhouettes and the power of what is not shown. Using black and white as a visual language, the exhibition proposes multiple contrasting states, where the debate between such aspects forms a unique narrative for each viewer. What is right and what is wrong? What should be spoken and what should be silenced? What is real and what is fake?  The exhibition features music, film and live performance over three days and many of our students will be onsite to talk about their work.  Make sure to visit and see the museum from a new perspective with a fresh injection of style.  For some sneak previews of the works on display follow @betweentheliminal on Instagram.
