About Me
Elysium of Artificial Extension
I'm Yufan, a menswear designer from Glasgow School of Art. My composite identity from an observer of life, to a researcher of art, a visual expressionist, a garment maker and then a designer who presents menswear to audiences, has given me a deep sense of fulfillment and passion for it.
My works focus on the relationship of humans to society and nature, and is conducted from a post-humanist perspective. I often take inspiration from artists, music or architecture during the research phase and design different forms of visual experiments in conjunction with my subject matter. I am committed to developing my unique patternmaking methodology from the clues of my experiments, and research further about how anatomy and deconstruction ideas could help with pattern-making.
INSPIRATION
Posthumanism Prediction inspired by Land Reclamation
I have been influenced by the life experiences. From the experience of living in several different countries, I have deeply felt about the industrial development of modern society, and its impact on the natural environment. While technological advancement has brought countless benefits to humanity, the problems it solves also create problems.
The coastal cities where I lived have had massive reclamation projects that pushed the coastline farther and farther away from the sea, which drew me to explore the ecological impacts and the implications for the future of mankind underneath the boom of factory skyscrapers that have sprung up. Artificial land is a typical anthropocentric product, an extension of modern technology to ecology.
