Ivan Medrano's NFT series ‘PEACE & LOVE’ explores the contrast between medieval combat armour and images of demurity & romance. The garments feature motifs of hearts, pearls, and femininity, all encased in cold metal.
Bodices within the collection bear imagery by photographer Arslan Mominkulov, depicting subjects of robust femininity, rugged, and raw.
Yuval Ozery’s line of digital accessories seeks to discover how what we place on our bodies can serve to both shelter us from and inject us into daily engagements within our worlds. Through the design of accessories that visually take inspiration from armor and weaponry, this line reveals a meshing of love, beauty, and violence.
There’s little we can control in life, however, the manner in which we carry ourselves in action and appearance remains a cornerstone of authority we find comfort and security in. In this way, fashion acts as a form of armouring, shielding a wearer through plates of identity. To adorn yourself is to take control of how you are perceived, accepted, or rejected by the world.
The virtual gallery opens with a circular arrangement of displayed pieces. Two large scale models guard the centerpiece, posing at its sides. A lowered black platform sits in the middle of the space, bordering a small pedestal. Above the stand floats a metallic heart bag with spikes protruding the sides. Above the display hovers a larger version of the piece, with its spikes hanging down, piercing at the viewer.
Renders in wall frames circle around the space, surrounding the centerpieces in the middle. A group of large scale helmets float, observing a smaller model of the head piece on a pedestal of its own.
On the mermaid guardian pearl bodice, “I wanted this collection to rely a lot more on intricate details. Looking at previous seasons I see that i have a tendency to focus on larger garment forms and explorations of materiality. With that, I really aimed to challenge myself with this series, maybe expanding what my visual identity may look like. My ultimate goal would be reaching the scenario in which a person can pick out my past pieces out of a room of work and confidently say they were mine.

My name is Arslan and I am a photographer. All photography is based on captured moments. Sometimes you may not have time to take a picture. More often than not. I project my old memories onto new photographs - give them more feeling. I always try to make it artistic/poetic.

"Her helmet drapes over the surface of her scalp, dropping down over her face, revealing only her jaw and the slits of her eyes."
Another woman, also armoured in silver, walks past the borders of her frame. Her bodice is different, silhouetting the shape of a heart as two breastplates fan upwards, shielding the decalage of the wearer. An ovular pearl sits encased on her stomach. The panels surrounding the gem bear imagery by photographer Arslan Mominkulov, depicting subjects of robust femininity, rugged, raw, and uncaptured. The woman is the first model of the series, opening the collection and introduces the founding motifs of hearts, armoury, and danger. Her heart bag is starkly more fierce than the one nurtured by model three. She waves it to her side, keeping its distance from her thigh, swinging it back as she struts forward. The piece, featuring Ozery’s signature heart mould form, is teethed with spikes around the frame. Similar spikes are seen on Ozery’s physical piece, the ‘Black Denim Heart Armour Jacket.’ The engraved words “Oh My Heart” in gothic font face the front of the bag. Here, the heart is a mode of protection, a weapon of hostility and romantic cynicism that shields its owner from heartbreak.

A woman stands in the centre of frame, her armour coating the panels of her head, torso, and legs. The hardware is smooth, melted onto her, as she was moulded by silver herself. Two upturned forms outline her pelvis, mirroring the gesture of a pelvis, expanding the woman’s waist upwards. Her helmet drapes over the surface of her scalp, dropping down over her face, revealing only her jaw and the slits of her eyes. In her arms, she cradles a crying heart. As sculpted tears trickle down its front, the bag rests against its owner’s chest. The woman holds it close, guarding her heart. The woman is the third model of Ivan Medrano’s third digital fashion collection ‘SEASON THREE: PEACE & LOVE’, featuring accessories by fashion designer Yuval Ozery. The collection enquires about the relationship between imagery of feminine demurity, romance, and cold battle armour, and touches upon fashion’s ability the be a mode of protection and resistance. The custom pieces by Yuval Ozery encapsulate the femme fetale essence of the series, blurring the lines between weaponry and accessory.
