The information that follows is from Krantz:


Whiteness

Using elements of fashion, photography and graphic design, Whiteness celebrates magnificent people in times of popular uprisings and digital revolution. Our view on power and information has changed while true greatness still lies in the hands of man’s courage and inner longings.

Whiteness by Julia Krantz

The guerrilla acts out of will power, not social convention and is therefore always wide awake. She is her absolute greatest and most luminous self.

Whiteness by Julia Krantz

A shemagh is tied in eight steps. Whiteness is some people’s ability to, despite their vulnerability follow their own path.

Here is some more information from Julia Krantz:


In my final project I have deviated from the physical paper and sketched directly on the body with the material. I have let myself be inspired by anatomical elements, inner organs, and physical symmetry, as well as different body-related objects, such as protective equipment, masks, and different appliances.

Shell by Julia Krantz

I have worked in two layers in which I have built metal constructions together with outer transparent garments.

Shell by Julia Krantz

I have enlarged and deformed but also created new forms where weight, direction, and silhouette have been my starting points.

Shell by Julia Krantz

By adding light, I enhance the three-dimensional experience and the physical body.
