Ewan MacFarlane sculptures for 1017 ALYX 9SM

Paris

‘’This collection is about the blended versions of reality we all live in – both the real and the unreal together. I became acutely aware of how our perception of reality, of one experience, can be so completely different from another’s. It’s one of the reasons I wanted to work with the artist Ewan Macfarlane on the figures. It was the idea of recreating what a mannequin even means, what their implied actions even do – the figures are half-way between sculpture and retail. In some ways, isn’t that what we are too?’’

Matthew Williams, creative director 1017 ALYX 9SM
