Graduation year

2012

Jennifers work is often inspired by bubbles, foam or glass. What fascinates her is the short-lived but very strong presence of objects. The search for aesthetic is kind of a tightrope walk. She tries to find a balance between the known and strange, attraction and rejection. Her aim is to offend without being shocking. This tension is what generates curiosity.
Despite huge volumes, the silhouette of the body is always visible. With her collections, the audience immerses into the staged world of the designer as well as the women wearing the pieces immerse into the large volumes of the clothes.
