Fast-paced urban life seamlessly alternates between various activities and passivities. Work, play and recreation are condensed in time and space, to the point where the boundaries between them seem to blur, like a sprinter looking sideways. At the same time, a deregulation can be observed across all areas of cultural expression: The high fashion industry is turning to sportswear symbolism, while streetwear labels are infiltrating haute couture. Naive works of art line the galleries, private blogs reveal more truth than newspapers, and companies hand out bonuses for failed projects. Wherever one looks, rules are overturned for the sake of innovation and progress.

At first glance, the mystical surface evokes memories of flawless clarity, like that of a crystal.

The High Speed Collection oscillates between reality and fiction, function and concept, analogue and digital.
