The work of Felipe Oliveira Baptista is often described as “architectural.” From season to season, the guiding principle of his collections is the instinctive search for new constructions and original arrangements. Starting with a solid object and often inspired by images of architecture, Felipe’s creative process goes on to deconstruct and reconfigure these images to produce a garment. For example, the “Dyno” Spring-Summer collection of 2007 is based on the theme of facets, stiff and obviously “architectural.”
For the purposes of the present exhibition, Felipe has decided to reverse the usual order of his creative process by working from garment to object. He has broken apart the pattern of two designs to mold them and hang them on display. A devoted admirer of the Villa Noailles, Felipe Oliveira Baptista suggests a fresh dialogue between the villa’s architecture and the many facets of his own imagination.
