An avant-garde dress that represents a society between uncertainty, fear, isolation, and aggression. A dress over multiple crises and the simultaneity of events. About escalation and division, the looming “Next-Big-Thing,” and the end of illusions.

Since at least 2020, we have been experiencing a profound transformation of our world, marked by uncertainty, fear, and anger. These collective emotions have become entrenched in our social life and manifest in many different ways. They lead to isolation and aggression, and at the same time, we are witnessing an escalation of tensions, culminating in divisions within our society. Our 2020 dress captures this complex and somber reality, standing as a symbol for the state of our society.

The challenges we have faced since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic are so numerous we could hardly list them all. The global health crisis has not only shaken our confidence in the stability and reliability of our lives but also exposed systemic weaknesses that had long been hidden. The health threat was accompanied by a profound economic downturn, leaving its mark in unemployment, financial insecurity, and an ever-widening gap between rich and poor.

In a society already groaning under the strain of social inequalities, these crises have exacerbated existing problems. Social tensions have increased, and the sense of solidarity that prevailed at the beginning of the pandemic has given way to an atmosphere of mistrust and hostility. Masks have become symbols of political allegiance.

But it is not only the immediate health and economic crises that challenge our resilience. Simultaneously, we are experiencing a climate crisis of unprecedented magnitude, whose devastating effects are becoming increasingly undeniable. Wildfires in California, floods in Europe, and heatwaves in Asia – natural disasters are piling up, and we are frozen in fear like a rabbit before a snake. The fear of the next natural event that could upheave our lives is pervasive.

The silence screams so loud

In addition to the visible catastrophes, there is a seemingly silent crisis that often only registers as a footnote in public discourse: the mental health crisis. Isolation, uncertainty, and the constant threat of new crises are taking their toll. Many people are increasingly exhausted and overwhelmed, with emotional and psychological wounds often remaining invisible. This isolation and sense of helplessness can spiral into an emotional vortex, leading to aggression and escalation. Around the world, we are witnessing a rise in violence, whether in the form of urban riots, domestic violence, political radicalization, or wars.

In an era so deeply marked by uncertainty and fear, traditional notions and illusions are also being questioned. The idea of continuous progress and growing prosperity is increasingly challenged. Trust in democratic institutions and the media, once pillars of our society, is eroding. Populism and extremism are gaining ground, and the chasm between different social groups is widening.

The thorn within us

These multiple crises, the simultaneous events that destabilize our stability over and over, challenge our endurance and adaptability. In the avant-garde dress, we have attempted to capture these realities with all their complex emotions and challenges. The dark material reveals the thorns embedded within us, the brokenness and fragmentation. We are chalk white.

These are our feelings that we express through the dress.

What I've been looking for
Size: Large (Pack of 1)
Just got my Nero Ball. Only used it once, but really like it. I've tried other "ball on a string" type toys, with unsatisfactory results. I'll be using it as a training reward, and my boy, who is a pretty ferocious tugger, is going to learn 2 new things with this ball. 1st, to target the ball instead of the rope, and 2nd, that it's for a little gentle tugging instead of the full throttle stuff he does otherwise. After our 1st session with the Nero Ball, he's picking up on the new rules quickly. We'll see how it does long term, but I think this is one I'll stay with. *UPDATE* Been using my Nero Ball for a month now. I'm tempted to call it the 'Hero Ball' because it's just that terrific!! For me, the key has been putting in the time to allow both myself & my dog to develop the skill to use this tool smoothly. May sound strange, but using a toy as a training reward requires practice, and each different toy configuration requires different handling. It's time well spent - we're both having a lot of fun! Kudos to the designer of this ball. Every detail has been carefully considered, from the length & material of the rope (just the right length that the dog won't step on it; material is easy on the hand while still being tough enough to withstand a few toothy grabs; the loop is the perfect size to grab for a little tug or to pass the ball through to slip-knot it onto a belt loop). The ball is also just right. The knobs make it non-slip, the rubber eliminates tennis ball fuzz concerns, and being semi-hard and hollow makes it slightly compress-able, which makes it a higher value reward than a solid ball that can't be compressed. While this ball will not work for every application or for every dog, if you carefully read & understand the information provided and don't expect it to work outside those parameters, you will be pleasantly surprised by a very well designed, well constructed tool that you can use to enhance your training or play sessions with your dog.

Nice toy
Size: Large (Pack of 1)
This product is generally durable and easy to throw. However, the original rope knot came undone after just four throws, per my wife. Unfortunately, my knot-tying skills are limited to fishing knots and slip knots, which is on me. While I can't give a perfect score, I believe it deserves a 4.5 out of 5 stars due to the knot issue. A simple solution would be to apply heat shrink tubing over the knot and heat it to secure it, which would enhance its reliability and potentially elevate the rating to a perfect five stars.

Our German Shepherd loves it!
Size: Large (Pack of 1)
Order arrived promptly and in good condition. Our GSD barely let us get it out of the package before wanting to play with it. Works great as training reward and for fetch games. Been using it for three weeks, and it is holding up well.
