Designer to Watch, collection “MUSE OF FRANCIS BACON”
Seongsu Kim works as a fashion designer and freelance patternmaker
The collection “MUSE OF FRANCIS BACON” is inspired by the homonymous artist. The essence of this collection is the word “paradox”. Through his collection, Seongsu wants to re-read the life and works of the painter. The designer aimed at reinterpreting them, bringing to life the “contrast” aspect — between colours and lines, and order and disorder. In a deliberate search for duality, an element present in every creative figure.
