Theatrical Encounters: '[un]folding space' by Juliette Bogers

Juliette Bogers, born in Roosendaal, a little town in the south of the Netherlands near the border of Belgium. Growing up close to a border made me become curious to know what´s behind. Different cultures, different perspectives and different point of views offer an inspirational knowledge of world we are living in. When exploring the boundaries of the field of fashion to search my place in it, I feel the same urge to know what´s behind and by what it’s inspired. By working with different disciplines within the same period of time, new perspectives broaden and inspire my view on the field. Photography and choreography are two disciplines that are close to me; the first one looks at the world from another perspective and the second one explores your place and space in it. I love to work and design with the moulage method; the fabric leads the design around the body until the most ultimate form is found.

1. Please introduce yourself to our readers. (Who are you, where do you come from and what is your field of specialization?) 

My name is Andrea Mohr. I was born and raised in the city of Bonn in Germany. After high school I went to live in Tokyo for one year and then came to Maastricht in the Netherlands to pursue my studies in fashion design. I specialize in womenswear, in which I explore different techniques and prints. 

Lately, I've increasingly focused on prints and the “lenticular effect”, that simulates moving images. 

After graduation, I will further specialize in this and work towards a collection and a range of accessories that will be exhibited as part of MARKED!, an initiative of Designplatform Limburg and C-Mine in Genk that works with ten young designers and helps them produce and sell their products. These items will also be sold in selected stores at the end of the year.
