Dripping Mannequins

Ferdi Rizkiyanto 'Mannequin Series' Tweaks the Standard Storefront Model

— November 21, 2009 — Tech
This Ferdi Rizkiyanto 'Mannequin' series turns a standard, stiff mannequin into a water-like dripping piece of digital artwork. Mannequins aren't known for their fluid movement, so this surreal vision of the storefront model is quite eye-catching.

We've featured a number of digital artists who use their talent to transform everyday objects into something extraordinary. After you check out the Ferdi Rizkiyanto 'Mannequin' series above, keep clicking for more similar features.

Implications - Mannequins are meant to be noticed by the consumer so that they can easily project themselves onto the clothing in the store front. Ferdi Rizkiyanto flips that by creating mannequins that stand out and call attention to themselves in very quirky and clever ways, melding this concept with individualism.
Trend Themes
1. Digital Art Mannequins - Creating mannequins that transcend traditional notions of physicality and become eye-catching pieces of digital artwork, disrupting the storefront model.
2. Fluid Movement Mannequins - Transforming stiff mannequins into water-like figures that challenge the static nature of traditional storefront displays, offering disruptive innovation opportunities to create more dynamic and engaging retail experiences.
3. Quirky and Clever Mannequins - Designing mannequins that stand out and call attention to themselves in unconventional ways, promoting individualism and breaking away from traditional store visual merchandising techniques.
Industry Implications
1. Fashion Retail - Introducing digital art mannequins and fluid movement mannequins in fashion retail stores can revolutionize visual merchandising and attract more customers.
2. Art and Design - The concept of quirky and clever mannequins offers an innovative approach for artists and designers to create unique and attention-grabbing installations in art galleries and exhibitions.
3. Retail Technology - Developing advanced technologies to create realistic and interactive mannequins with fluid movement can lead to disruptive innovation in the retail technology industry, enhancing the customer experience.
