Brittle Render, Sequenced Thought

A runway film by Samuel Ross and Rob Rusling

Collection Overview

The gesture of a brushstroke and character of line provided initial design rationale behind A-COLD-WALL*s Autumn/Winter 2022 collection. The unique essence of formal elements to outwardly express something intrinsic is harnessed across the collection through exploration of material and form.

Relaxed Cubist

Abstract Form

Working in collaboration with photographer Rob Rusling, stylist Robbie Spencer and make-up artist Thom Walker, the expressive sensibility that inspired the collection was brought to fruition across all mediums. This milieu of work embodies the artist’s pursuit of external expression, enhancing craft through contorting material and silhouettes.

The Tanks, Tate Modern

Shot in the bellows of the Tate Modern, the site operated as a signifier of both an architectural and metaphorical representation of the cavernous, introspective, emotional, human mind.
