UK-based artist Arran Gregory works together with [London clothing brand](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/assemblage-7-lost-and-found-ii) You Must Create, otherwise known as YMC Clothing on the new Invisible Figures exhibition. It features a [series of wooden silhouettes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pure-exhibition) that are suspended with the help of aluminum, steel wires, and crocodile clips. It hangs in mid-air and are pieces from its own Fall/Winter 2023 collection.

The figures are in four wireframes -- all of which are meant to replicate three-dimensional sketches. These are named "Invisible Man,” “Invisible Woman,” “Moonwalking in YMC,” and “Fly Kick Invisible Man.” The exhibition is currently on display in both Brick Lane and [Soho's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/soho-ballet-flat) TMC flagship store locations. Gregory notes to designboom, “I’m interested in the space between the two and three-dimensional, switching between both and using sculpture as a development of drawing."
