THE GREATEST SHOW ON EARTH
is the wonders of nature and what it creates. I found inspiration in the travelling freakshows of the late 1800.
The project questions the common body ideals of the modern society, which preaches a very narrow view of the perfect and beautiful body. And through the project I try to spread a broader image of what beauty can be and where it comes from.
I see the beauty in the small differences of the human body, and want the world to embrace the surprises of nature. The individuality of the human being is connected to the small deviations and flaws that makes us different than the ordinary, and to be unique we have to contain some kind of imperfection.
I have worked with transforming textile studies and experiments into a unique collection in the cross-field between costume and fashion.
THE GREATEST SHOW ON EARTH was my graduation project from Kolding School of Design.
