Iris Van Herpen
‘Roots of Rebirth’ explores the deeply fragile interconnectedness of an unfamiliar world, the enigmatic fungi empire and the life-bearing fine threads of mycelium. The collection details the extraordinary existence of this winding ‘fabric of life,’ the marvelling world of undergrowth tapestry. Inspired by the book penned by biologist Merlin Sheldrake, 'Entangled Life' notes that ‘fungi is the ecological connective tissue, the living seam by which much of the world is stitched into relation.’
‘Roots of Rebirth’ extends its own branch, an invitation to a sequence of 21 looks inspired by roots and spores. During the show, the models seem to magnetize a living lace of spores with each stride, the entanglement of each garment resembles roots of regeneration. Iris van Herpen amplifies her kinetic ethos, citing the constant state of metamorphosis in the fungi queendom.
The mysteries of the undergrowth influence the composition of our sacred planet so selflessly through shape-shifting silhouettes that bring the promise of a renaissance and regeneration. The collection is a performance dedicated to the importance of our being and the valiance of
nature. With the persistence of time, evolution prevails, and while these beings are never truly fixed, they exist merely in a state of flux, a rippling fabric of life itself, dancing to the benevolent beat of rebirth.
