Designer Close To Cotton And Linen -- Mark

I am a very fascination with handicraft. I like drawing and doing things from childhood. What people do by hand often contains deep feelings and spirituality that industrial machines can not achieve. Now the situation of handicraft around the world is basically the same, and has been squeezed to the edge of life by a large number of manufactured goods. In useless studios, all our products are hand-made, from spinning to weaving, sewing and final dyeing, all in manual and natural way, without any burden on the earth. This is also the reason why I give up the industry's efficiency and choose the slow original handicraft: if we can't find the emotional and spiritual value of it through matter, then this is the "dead material" to me. Now things like this on the earth have been stacked up like hills, which consume a lot of resources.

With the exception of brand growth and development, my partner and I have great differences in the direction of brand development. I insist on exception. As a designer brand, we should always adhere to the principles of high design quality and spiritual values, which are always greater than commercial interests. However, the partners hope that the scale of enterprises will continue to expand and expand the number of shops to create greater business benefits. In order to adhere to the original intention of entrepreneurship, I officially resigned from the position of design director in 2006 and came to Zhuhai alone to create "useless design studio". I want to try to regain these useless traditional skills to do some things. I want to challenge my past limits and see if I can make some transcendental and inspiring works.

I have a strong desire to explore people's spiritual life and soul world. Through those things that deeply touched my hands, I firmly believe that the greatest motivation for creation is to "care for people and care for people". This concern includes love, but it is broader and more unconditional than love.

Soon after the establishment of useless studio, I got France. Latest fashion The invitation of the trade union, based on the above ideas, decided to take part in the fashion week of Paris in 2007. For me, this is just a platform for speaking. I know that what I am doing is not a fashion at all. I hope to awaken more people to re understand these traditions and the emotional value contained in these memories. Fashion has always been a symbol of rank and privilege since its beginning, but I think everyone is equal before the work in front of the real work in front of the workers. If there is no labor for them, the urban people can not live on this earth. In front of the laborers, we have no sense of superiority to show off. This show is my heartfelt tribute from my heart to the mother of the earth who nurtured mankind for millions of years and the farmers who have been quietly working on the land.

After the Paris conference, some museums around the world began inviting "useless" exhibitions, and others began to call me "artists". Art is the sacred pure land that I have yearned for for many years. The art in my mind is the last salvation of mankind. The crisis and problems that mankind is facing now has solutions in art. The name of the artist can undoubtedly satisfy the vanity. I have been thinking about this choice for half a year, and constantly ask myself: "if this life can only choose to do one thing in the world, what will it be?"

Pursue self expression and show your talents to the world. Creative ability It is impossible for me to attract me. What I want to achieve is something that is longer than life, because my actions can make the relationship between nature and people better. I think that the value of a person is not reflected in his personal achievements, but in the kindness and kindness of the natural things around him, the inspiration to others' meaning of life, and the enhancement of the quality of people's spiritual life. If they can not contribute in this respect, what is the significance of even personal success and wealth? What kind of title is no longer important? The key is to be able to get away from the ego and make a steady progress in creating good fortune for all.

Not long after the first release, we received the invitation of Paris's advanced fashion week. In July 2008, a Chinese drama called "luxurious poverty" was staged in the international fashion camp. In the open square of the Royal Palace in Paris, a group of Yoga Taichi dancers of different ages of different nationalities dressed in simple dress, dancing with the pure and broad singing of Mongolia singers, slowly meditating in the sunset, just like the eastern pure land in the dream. In the letter to the Paris High Fashion Association, I wrote: "I want to return clothing to its original charm, so that people will be overstimulated by the senses to restore sensitivity to minutiae. In today's era, the real fashion is no longer the empty and beautiful packaging that is driven by the trend. It should be the extraordinary thing once again seen in the ordinary. I believe that real luxury is not in its price, but in the spirit of its representative.

We can Design What? The necessities of life do not need visible design at all. The invisible design is no longer a design, but a "heart". When you are facing the same material as you are silent, "heart" is not the calculation of lust. It is not "control" and "control".

The respect for the work of the opponent is to be deeply understood. First, he can listen to it and understand it, then do it naturally, without distortion or imposition. The wonders and greatness of nature are enough to satisfy all our curiosity and imagination. We do not need to create deliberately. We only need to find out by heart. We find that hidden in all things, the Tao in natural laws does not need to try to change or manipulate the nature of human beings. Human life is inseparable from the natural ecology. Our life is a part of the ecosystem. Human behavior will directly affect nature, and ultimately return on ourselves. This is cause and effect. It is also an eternal law of the universe.

In the studio life, I live in silence of a person for about 80% of the time every day, and the silent life is not silent. When I do not speak, the outside voice becomes very clear: early morning is the singing of birds, and the wind is blowing through the big trees, and the leaves are rustling. After the rain, the drip of the water on the eaves is dripping in front of the door. Dusk is the voice of the monotonous and moving old loom in the next room, and when I put my ear on the sleeping dog's nose, her steady sweet breath...... In fact, everyone has two voices. One is the voice between lips and teeth. The other is the sound of silence in the heart. When one is ringing, the other will be closed. "The basic way of human existence is silence. Silence is not external, but has been hidden in our hearts. The quickest way to achieve self purification and self discipline is silence. If you want to protect your soul in the noise, you must understand the meaning of silence.
