Dort, wo das moos tanzt

Abstract

Since my childhood, I have been fascinated by traditional processions and the ecstasy they trigger in me when I watch them. Pagan customs that served to drive away evil spirits. As a woman excluded from the "Klausjagen", I integrate myself into the tradition with my thesis collection. With five looks designed for women, I mix traditional elements, surrealism and well-known tailoring codes. I present my work in the form of a parade in which a group of women break out of their everyday lives. It is a tribute to the strength of different forms of femininity, which together banish their ghosts.
