Ximonlee: If Everyone Understands You, How Ordinary Are You?
The background of multicultural education is very common.
Designer
Industry, Ximon Lee Li Dongxing's identity background is still very strange: his father came from Daegu, South Korea.
When they invaded Korea, they moved their families to China.
"I was born in Heilongjiang and lived in many places."
Ximon Lee said, "the earliest place is Manchuria, the Russian border, thirty or forty degrees below zero in winter.
Then I moved to Beijing, and I went to school in Beijing.
Then he moved to Shanghai for a year.
I went to high school in Hongkong before I went abroad. "
The complex childhood experience of Ximon brings greater vision to the world, but at the same time, it also serves as a reference for him to peel off other cultural concepts and interpret them in his own way of interpretation.
east
The concept.
During the University, Ximon Lee participated in the exchange project between Parsons School of design and Saint Martin School of design. When designing, he found a source of inspiration that resonated with himself.
"I started reading some books and related to myself.
I am very touched by myself. I read the documentary The Children of Leningradsky, which is a documentary about the times of the former Soviet Union. "Children"
Its whole environment touched my memory when I was young.
There are many buildings in the north of China that are affected by the former Soviet Union.
In the documentary, the wandering children crouched at Leningrad railway station are wearing worn patches.
Sweater
He was deeply touched by Ximon, a big coat that he did not fit, and his hanging ornaments, which reminded him of his childhood life in the north.
In his design, he began to obsessed with complex cascading, patching, and hanging accessories.
"There is a kind of feeling that your mother will give you a lot of clothes when you were little.
It's not that I don't want to wear it, but it's the feeling of hugging. "
Ximon said.
It was said that Ximon Lee was full of childhood memories and personal feelings, and was deeply impressed by the judges of the H&M design award.
Finally, he became the H&M Design Award in 2015 after three rounds of screening.
From 2015 to now, Ximon Lee has been established for nearly 4 years, and when you see the 2018 Lee autumn and winter series presented by Ximon Lee, you will find that
colour
And fabric texture control is more sophisticated.
The new series of autumn and winter 2018 was named
"Master of Mess
"
It's him and the artist.
Pan Daijing
Co creation, intended
Explore the imperfections and contradictions behind good things.
A series.
The highly saturated colors he used carefully, like red, bronze, and some light coloured fluorescent colors, were woven into woven fabrics like his oil paints, forming a chaotic, burning and flaming gorgeous texture. When the background was hidden by darkness, the texture attached to the hard fabric flowed with the model dance, like the moving fireworks that were continuously blooming and vanishing in the night.
He named these "blood brocade" (blood brocade). All the jacquard patterns on look were extracted from oil paintings, and the materials in the paintings were extracted. The Ximon team developed jacquard woven fabrics in Holland, but later it was found that it seemed to be more vivid with the back of the pattern. Everything looked very shy, like a shadow, you could not see clearly, but if the whole series was put together, it would be a coherent picture.
The fabric was accidentally developed by Ximon's team. The uneven texture was a surprise that was suddenly discovered in the shrinkage test. The whole process was based on different blending lines to form each element. He liked the chance to come from the exploration process and development process, and everything was born in an inadvertent and organic development.
Devoted a lot of time and energy to the research and development of special fabrics.
"Fast times"
It seems very rare.
Therefore, such efforts will be given higher expectations, but can these subtle and subtle intentions be seen and understood by more people? Ximon said,
"In this era, designers or ordinary people are always looking forward to being recognized by more people and being understood by more people. But if everyone understands you, how ordinary you are.
This is the magic of this era.
While many of them are quickly digested and consumed, they are self contradictory, but this does not affect their flow in the turbulent river.
So doing something "slow" in this fast era is not necessarily so abrupt.
I'm not doing that right now.
Trend
By comparison, it is more mysterious and exciting than the recognition of the public.
Ximon's multiple identity growth background has brought him a broader vision, which makes him more unconstrained by traditional ideas and to explore and establish his own aesthetic system.
He feels that this is both a hindrance and an opportunity: as a new generation of designers, many things have not yet existed, and they must take the lead in endless tunnels.
Before, there was no obvious Chinese element in the design of Ximon, because to him, the spiritual connotation of the East was naturally endowed by the growing environment, which was rather complicated rather than single.
He believes that design is also a natural revelation and is not something to emphasize.
But there will be Chinese elements in the following series because he wants to try his own dialogue with his own culture.
In Ximon's own words, "I want to know the cultural gaze of" me "for so long, what kind of gaze will" I "give back to my culture.
"I think my style is my style. Ximon Lee is Ximon Lee. I don't have a special word to explain it.
But I think my stuff is quite post-modern. I rarely use those special things, and I seldom use cultural references. After all, I grew up in China, so my whole concept and thinking are still very Chinese.
I do not have a specific style, more of a post-modern orientation.
What do our generation want to find? We want to leave a classic for the next generation. "
Ximon said.
Finally, we asked XIMON, how did you first define the brand of XIMONLEE? Do all kinds of interpretations make you have a new view of your brand? XIMON says, "define your writing, and I don't know what your initial definition is.
Writing poetry with fabric and structure is like a completely unexpected development of our fabric, a random and pleasant development process.
The unexpected interpretation is bound to collide. It is just the difference between hitting a spark or hitting a broken head. The interpretation of sparks is like XIMONLEE's intention to hear the echo. If new ideas are generated, the interpreter from the new works will also receive echoes.
