Inspired by the image strategies of Oliviero Toscani’s iconic Benetton campaigns, layer(s) asks: What is diversity?
Narisawa challenges us to reflect on how we perceive others, questioning binaries of inclusion and authenticity, while offering a nuanced, critical lens on representation.
In late November, Kihako Narisawa and her mentor, Hussein Chalayan, will convene at Gropius Bau for a condensed work-stay to further develop Narisawa’s project Layer(s). They will host a public event as part of the exhibition venue’s Spätschicht program.
The final production of layer(s) will be unveiled at the Forecast Festival, in March 2026.
