The 4-day White Milano event has come to an end. Also in this edition at Massimiliano Bizzi's concept trade show there was no lack of ideas about what tomorrow's Fashion System will be (when tomorrow is perhaps already today). Pet Liger's IRL exhibition is a significant case in point.
The Pet Liger collective, founded by visionary artist and creative director Constantinos Panayiotou, with computational architect Pico Velasquez, Viira, and with avant-garde sound design by Akito attended White Milano for the first time. The artwork on display on Via Tortona will be part of an NFT auction open to the public, in collaboration with SuperRare, and will include the series of high-heeled silhouettes. A project that exploits the potential of 3D technology to its current known limits by creating stunningly realistic shoe models that can be used to sell or generate advertising. Because of the ever-changing landscape of the fashion industry, designers must constantly adapt and produce avant-garde designs to keep up with the times, and thanks to incredible new engineering feats, there is no limit to what can be done with cutting-edge technology. 3D printing (in the footwear industry, but also in all others) enables prototypes to be created quickly and inexpensively, allowing new shapes and materials to be pioneered without overspending and in a sustainable way.Creative work that blurs the boundaries between fields, from art to animation to abstract creation.
Welcome to the exciting world of conceptual 3D shoes.
