FASHION + ART + SCIENCE
Local Artists reveal at the Fashion Forward NightLife at the Academy of Sciences The Academy of Sciences presents a night of high fashion on Thursday, September 5, for an evening of art, design, and interactive projects featuring some of the most innovative and prolific local designers.
With music by DJs Jaysonik and Chris Orr, local designers Camelia Skikos, Sara Shepherd, Lucien Shapiro, Daniel Chimowitz, Ken Chen, and Lan Jaenicke expose their wearable works of art in a runway show curated by Negar Siadatnejad and Woven Arrow Productions.
Artist Lucien Shapiro is known for his elaborate and ornate masks, armor and weaponry constructed from found objects, texture, cast forms and manipulations. His art makes an experience for both the wearer and the viewer as he is able to transpose the individuality of the work upon the wearer and his audience. The dedication to his practice produces continued evolutions conceptually and in his craftsmanship. In anticipation for Shapiro’s upcoming show at Guerrero Gallery on September 14th entitled Vessel, his show at the Academy Of Sciences will be the first debut of his new work.
Visitors can also collaborate and participate in a “crochet jam” inspired by folk-art traditions and techniques with SFO Museum curator Ramekon O’Arwisters. Learn the process of how cinematographer Milos Vlaski manipulates and creates his textiles. Take in the fish, flora and fauna of the Academy, a cocktail in hand, while viewing the latest collections from San Francisco’s most notable local designers: the geometric designs of Camelia Skikos, the elegance of Ken Chen’s collections, Sara Shepherd’s classic British style, the sophisticated minimalism of Lan Jaenicke, and Daniel Chimowitz’s vibrant artistry featuring painted shapes and patterns, bold brush strokes and lively eye-popping colors.
