Created by Jiaqi Shen and Essie Liu, the multi-sensory experience is an extension of Jiaqi’s eponymous fashion collection featured on Vogue Runway, which explores the capricious nature of intimacy through the tension between layered sheer textiles and structural boning.

GUIDE YOU THROUGH SENSES

Showcasing Jiaqi's unrevealed prototypes across stages of developing the collection, you are welcome to enter her mind-space, partaking in the ideating, experimenting, and making an art/fashion creation.

Inviting you to join this exploration, we translate impalpable emotions into an immersive experience encompassing fashion design, art installation, and textile manipulation.

Sensory enhancements will pervade your time here via the live dance performance, scented space, themed audio, and scattered "touch points."

All for you to see, hear, smell, touch, and remember the moment.

DANCE YOU A FADED DREAM

Featuring performance artists Rinchen Drolkar & Mira Jiang, four episodes of live dance will be performed daily within the hanging textile centerpiece - "The Maze of Intimacy."

In these semi-improvised episodes, performers will have their bodies narrating the dynamics residing in different forms of relationships in an organic manner.

Let bodies flow with the breathing, along the stories, and toward you.
