Till I Return

As we, the world and all creation are experiencing a collective transition, a new future awaits us all. Space & time become utter necessities for the acceptance of a new state of being, while our wounds slowly heal. In all humbleness, the CYCLE collection offers an alternative to help us through the now. A bright red, encouraging life force and passion for creation... an ode to love. Smoothly textured fabrics with soft caresses, sensible colors chosen to highlight the new cycle we are entering. The elements are in constant rotation.

Short film by Ramy Moharam Fouad on Jan-Jan Van Essche’s COLLECTION#11 - ’GRACE’ (SS21)

Director Ramy Moharam Fouad followed Brussels based rapper Zwangere Guy around on his 2019 tour.

Mona is left alone in a large and empty house after her lover left for the war front. She gets no news from him for months. The days are long. The old walls retain the memory of a warm love for a while. Mona waits, hopes, and wades around the abandoned house, like a shadow of who she once was.

A demented woman is suspended between the bitter reality and her dreams.

Nasayan (نسيان): "To forget//When one finds himself between two stages, not knowing what the future may bring."

SUNU is a collaborative fashion short film directed by Ramy Moharam Fouad with choreography by Sidi Larbi Cherkaoui on the new AW21 Project#9 SUNU from Antwerp based designer Jan - Jan Van Essche. The collective idea SUNU, meaning ‘our’ in the Wolof language, summarizes the sentiment of unity, fragility and inclusive interconnectivity. A sense of responsibility towards each other and what surrounds us. A solid bond, a strong connection, which needs to be cherished and praised but simultaneously guarded.

PROJECT#10 - A HORIZON is an attempt to create, while clearing the mind of obstructions and merely trusting the unknown. Trying to overrule distortion and to rise above the unnecessary noise, longing for a new paradigm; a contemporary way of understanding the whole and each other. Breaking through prevailing conditioning that limits the exploration of what we no longer perceive and desperately seek to re-establish.

With COLLECTION#13 - ZEAL the designer wants to send out a message of encouragement, starting with a note to oneself. A motivation to lift up the spirit, to reawaken dormancy and to find strength and perseverance from within. A spring & summer wardrobe of individual garments; each sheltering one’s core with the utmost tenderness.
