View Larger Image and Additional Photos of Lixun Su STATEMENT OF ART:About Lixun Su : Aqua Lixun Su is the eponymous brand of designer Su Lixun. Her name draws inspiration from Chinese poetry of the Song Dynasty. In Chinese, it translates to 'Water. Seek. Su.' The so-called 'Yi Ren' (ideal person) exists by the water, with clear and varied waters nurturing all things. Through unremitting efforts, one will eventually reach the highest realm of life—'In the midst of the crowd, searching for him countless times, suddenly looking back, and there he is in the dim light.'
The core of the Aqua Lixun Su brand is to awaken people's yearning for beautiful things, inspire self-awareness, and marvel at their uniqueness, embracing endless possibilities. Aqua Lixun Su insists on exploring the human body's structure, enhanced by external clothing, to present the most beautiful and optimal mental states in a more charming form. Breaking gender constraints while prioritizing comfort, the designs exude elegance, nobility, and vibrant energy.
In terms of design, Aqua Lixun Su adheres to innovation, emphasizing structure to make clothing more three-dimensional, and achieving a harmonious unity between the garment and the wearer. This breaks the stereotype of knitwear being overly flat. Quality is emphasized through the use of the most suitable, high-quality yarns. The craftsmanship is meticulous, with many details completed by hand. The first season of the fashion line, symbolized by the infinity sign, was unveiled in September 2022.
Aqua Lixun Su is designed for independent women: Own yourself, Fight for yourself. It embodies a sense of retro-futurist soft armor.
Her first collection is called Infinite Aqualand,inspired by the futuristic themes in 'Blade Runner,' where emotions are implanted into replicas, I reflect on how experiences, habits, secularism, and culture shape our thoughts, binding behavior. Seeking liberation from these constraints, she envisioned Infinite Aqualand.
Her debut collection, Infinite Aqualand, draws inspiration from 'Blade Runner's' futuristic themes, where emotions are implanted into replicas. Exploring the impact of experiences, habits, secularism, and culture on our thoughts and behaviors, envision Infinite Aqualand as a quest for liberation from these constraints.
As the inaugural chapter of Aqua Lixun Su, Infinite Aqualand aspires to establish a new realm—Aqualand—defined by boundless freedom. The knitted infinity symbol, crafted through multidimensional algorithms, represents a groundbreaking exploration of knitting. This symbol transcends simplicity, transforming into accessories, clothing, or even integrating seamlessly into the human form, akin to the joints of a robot.
Through intricate ribbed kaleidoscopic knitting techniques, her fashion sculptural soft armors for future-independent women. Embrace the future without fear, live fully in the present, and empower women with limitless possibilities through the knitted rendition of the infinity symbol.
If Infinite Aqualand serves as the prologue, then this collection marks the formal beginning.
When I think about design and art, I see them as two intertwined yet distinct disciplines. Design is about purposeful creation, solving problems, and optimizing functionality while maintaining aesthetics. Art, on the other hand, is often more about expression, emotion, and interpretation. However, they both share the common thread of creativity and innovation. From my perspective, design is like the structured blueprint of a building, carefully planned and executed to serve a specific function while considering usability and aesthetics. Art, on the contrary, is like a free-flowing painting, allowing for boundless expression and interpretation. Yet, there's a beautiful overlap between the two. Design can be elevated by incorporating artistic elements, adding depth and emotion to functional creations. Similarly, art can benefit from design principles, enhancing its impact and accessibility. Ultimately, design and art are complementary forces that enrich our lives, shape our environment, and provoke thought and emotion in unique ways.
