Metacaryotes: Staghorn

Metacaryotes is a collection of three digital fashion wearables. The main idea is based on the research of illustration from the Ernst Haeckel book “Art Forms in Nature”. This book was a reflection of Haeckel’s sense of the world: he chose the life forms in a special way in order to show the perfection of their organization. The collection Metacaryotes demonstrates the reinterpretation and rebirth of these bioforms in the metaverse. Staghorn is the first work in a series. It is also known as a platycerium. The plant grows in tropical rainforests and has two types of leaves, one of which resembles stag horns in shape. This suit is a representation of the symbiotic relationship of a plant and a human in the virtual world context. This collection was created in order to encourage people to pay more attention to such a unique and fragile world of living organisms.
