KRISTA KIM X LOUIS VUITTON
The gradient transcends boundaries, transmuting colours into a spectrum that reveals unexpected beauty - gradient beauty is the spirit of fluid, digital, decentralized culture. Our future is the Metaverse. The gradient represents hope, freedom, innovation, co-creation and co-existence. Multiple colours exist as one, just as we are diverse human beings on the Metaverse. We are progressively more fluid in race, nationality, sexuality, politics, religion, spirituality… we are a gradient. The Metaverse will become our new parallel reality. We will have a frictionless transition between virtual, augmented reality, and reality - this is quantum life. This artwork embodies these futurist concepts and visionary embodiment of Louis Vuitton."
