Revolve Clothing line, a high fashion boutique, has recently displayed a temporary installation in their West Hollywood showroom. Molly Hunker and Gregory Corso of Sports created a colorful yet dramatic installation titled 'Life Will Kill You.' Hunker and Corso's creation (composed of 100,000 zip ties) gave life and color to the predominantly black and white basic showroom. Imagine being in the presence of this vivid cloud of zip ties; it definitely adds edge!
Implications - The designers Molly Hunker and Gregory Corso believe that their design explores the edge between elegance and aggression by way of material sensibility and overall form.
Giving 'Life Will Kill You' a thorough look -- I'm inclined to agree.
