SELF-EXILE: RVNDM x ESCAPISMIST – A Visual Manifesto of the Berlin Underground
Collaboration: RVNDM x escapismist (Self-Exile)
“SELF-EXILE” is a radical snapshot of Berlin. In collaboration with the videographer and artist escapismistI created 10 exclusive one-off pieces, which were presented as part of his exhibition at the concept store “The Code.”
- Handmade Upcycling:Ten unique items – ranging from bags and trousers to hoodies and shirts – deconstructed and reassembled.
- Cross-Over Design:A symbiosis of iconic bases (such as Nike), works by the graffiti artist Paradoxe, RVNDM motifs, and original photographs by escapismist.
- Material & Vibe:Each piece functions as a canvas for the raw, unfiltered vibe of the Berlin streets.
- Exclusivity:Crafted for the exhibition at The Code Berlin– fashion as an art object in the exile of the big city.
The collection plays with the idea of “self-exile” – the conscious retreat into one’s own creative world amidst the urban chaos. By incorporating real photographs onto textiles and collaborating with graffiti influences, I have created pieces that breathe the energy of Berlin. It is a mix of foreign relics and my own signature style.
Every detail was manually refined by me at 414 Studio. “SELF-EXILE” is not a classic drop, but a documentary work that shows what happens when photography, street art, and craftsmanship collide in a Berlin backyard.
