HELIX
The Helix mask is an exclusive prototype, designed at the request of Li Edelkoort for the « Fetishism in Fashion » exhibition, presented at the Trapholt Museum in 2015. This protective mask, typically used in paintball, is adorned with two black raven wings. The piece merges the modern technicality of a sports accessory with the organic beauty of bird wings, creating a strange and captivating harmony.
The black wings, imbued with strong gothic symbolism, give the mask a dark and mysterious appearance. The combination of these elements forms a powerful icon, evoking both historical references and futuristic visions. As an art object, « Helix » transcends its initial role as protection to explore identity and aesthetics, while delving into themes of fetishism and transformation.
Presented as a primordial artifact, the mask gains an additional narrative dimension, appearing to be part of an ancient ritual, further enhancing its enigmatic and timeless character.
