summary:
at the intersection of movement and aesthetic lies a delicate balance – one where clothing must simultaneously express and facilitate. when IXN approached ART—WORK to style the cast for a spec video on ufo 361's song 'wings', the opportunity extended beyond mere wardrobe selection.
my approach to styling this project originated from understanding the body in motion. each garment selection considered not just its static visual impact, but its kinetic language – how fabric responds to movement, how silhouettes transform through dance, how textures create their own visual rhythm against the camera's lens.
this dual role – as both stylist and behind-the-scenes documentarian – created a unique opportunity to capture the liminal moments where preparation meets performance. my signature photography style, with its deliberate play between clarity and abstraction, naturally complemented the expressionistic quality of the dance narrative.
the resulting documentation lives in that compelling space between process and product – revealing not just how the final video came to be, but capturing those ephemeral creative moments that typically remain invisible to the audience.
