DOUBLE EXPOSURE

WORKSHOP & RETAIL DESIGN / 2019 FALL
Group Project by Serena Sun, Kelly Ye,
Hidemi Kayama, and Yuiko Taniguchi



Double Exposure creates a platform empowering creative voices, who otherwise would not have an outlet for their unque works. We truly engage in a street wear culture that young artists can be a part of and are able to create fashion in a different light; working through a process of deconstruction and reconstruction is a way for people to fully express their individuality and creativity.
