When you enter the museum, the first thing you see when you look up is this Nigerian parable picked by the artist "A smiling face dispels unhappiness" written on the mezzanine railings. https://padlet.com/j_peel/zavsh0wbdmxba5ut/wish/2333384502 2022-10-10 11:01:54 UTC https://padlet.com/j_peel/zavsh0wbdmxba5ut/wish/2333384502 Korean wave ehibition https://padlet.com/j_peel/zavsh0wbdmxba5ut/wish/2333384617 the exhibition is in the V&A south Kensington i found the exhibition really engaging due to the vast number of pieces displayed from though out south Koren culture my favorite part of the exhibition was the floral bomber jacket by han hyun min 2020 spring summer collection, the construction of such garment was beautiful with petals within the padding of the jacket ]]> 2022-10-10 11:02:01 UTC https://padlet.com/j_peel/zavsh0wbdmxba5ut/wish/2333384617 There was a particular piece of artwork featured in the exhibition ( Hallyu the Korean wave ) that stuck with me throughout and even after the exhibition. It was kyuhgha ham's beautiful textile piece that depicted a slight abstracted fallen chandelier, not only was the image extremely evocative and captivating with its use of vibrant colours but ham's use of the broken chandelier as a metaphor for the division of Korea into north and south representing that despite south Koreas social and economic growth they are still ultimately a broken nation. seeing this really set the tone for me when viewing the rest of the exhibition. https://padlet.com/j_peel/zavsh0wbdmxba5ut/wish/2333384774 2022-10-10 11:02:10 UTC https://padlet.com/j_peel/zavsh0wbdmxba5ut/wish/2333384774 Yinka Ilori Parables for Happiness at the Design Museum https://padlet.com/j_peel/zavsh0wbdmxba5ut/wish/2333386517 I chose to visit Ilori's exhibition because of the bold and bright graphics I saw when researching his work before going.
 Using graphics, patterns, and colour is more than just aesthetics, as Ilori says, "a way of starting a conversation." Consequently, his work should lead to people feeling healthier and more joyful. ]]> 2022-10-10 11:03:55 UTC https://padlet.com/j_peel/zavsh0wbdmxba5ut/wish/2333386517 Yinka Iloris exhibition at the design museum was good. I liked the format of the exhibition as it kept you close to the art at all times. the text with the art pieces could have provide more information on the pieces as it seemed somewhat shallow in description. the pieces themselves were displayed nicely in good light to compliment the colors and shapes used. https://padlet.com/j_peel/zavsh0wbdmxba5ut/wish/2333386755 2022-10-10 11:04:07 UTC https://padlet.com/j_peel/zavsh0wbdmxba5ut/wish/2333386755 Kamala Ibrahim Ishag Serpentine Galleries. https://padlet.com/j_peel/zavsh0wbdmxba5ut/wish/2333386901 The exhibition had a minimal and calm layout which made it easy to take in all the work. Most of Ibrahim Ishag's work has spiritual and natural influences which furthered my feeling of calm which I enjoy as sometimes get overwhelmed by information or colour. I actually got to meet Kamala Ibrahim while I was there as well which was exciting after reading all about her before I went!]]> 2022-10-10 11:04:16 UTC https://padlet.com/j_peel/zavsh0wbdmxba5ut/wish/2333386901 atojalopez0420221_2 https://padlet.com/j_peel/zavsh0wbdmxba5ut/wish/2333388679 On Fashioning Masculinities: The Art of Menswear there is a section on Swaggering Capes it explains why short capes where popular in Europe in the 16th century along with an example of a more recent cape design by Dolce & Gabbana A/W 2012.]]> 2022-10-10 11:06:00 UTC https://padlet.com/j_peel/zavsh0wbdmxba5ut/wish/2333388679 https://padlet.com/j_peel/zavsh0wbdmxba5ut/wish/2333390593 2022-10-10 11:07:49 UTC https://padlet.com/j_peel/zavsh0wbdmxba5ut/wish/2333390593 Fashioning Masculinities: The Art of Menswear https://padlet.com/j_peel/zavsh0wbdmxba5ut/wish/2333391905 This exhibition showcases a vast variety of men’s clothing throughout history, but I was drawn to the undergarments and how it has evolved from the most modest to the form fitting styles we see today. ]]> 2022-10-10 11:09:04 UTC https://padlet.com/j_peel/zavsh0wbdmxba5ut/wish/2333391905 Yinka Ilori--Parables For Happiness (at the Design Museum) https://padlet.com/j_peel/zavsh0wbdmxba5ut/wish/2333400180 Yinka Ilori shows an eye-catching exhibition, with all his colourful and wonderful designs.  I can feel the happiness from his use of graphics, patterns and colour.  I love the way that he quotes, “A smiling face dispels unhappiness” on the glass.]]> 2022-10-10 11:16:49 UTC https://padlet.com/j_peel/zavsh0wbdmxba5ut/wish/2333400180 https://padlet.com/j_peel/zavsh0wbdmxba5ut/wish/2333400800 I went to see Zadie Xa ‘House Gods, animal guides and five ways to forgiveness’ I was gravitated towards this exhibition as soon as you walk in you see two beautiful jackets one traditional and another tailored jacket with ornate fabric flowers. Women embroider fabrics to cover precious objects, when some one passes you place specific ornaments to protect the home and the deceased. I think the way Zadie Xa has exhibited how her culture celebrates and honours animals is inviting and evocative when you first enter the exhibit your senses are taken over by colour and the lulling of the background recording drawing you into her world. ]]> 2022-10-10 11:17:25 UTC https://padlet.com/j_peel/zavsh0wbdmxba5ut/wish/2333400800
