Kazuyo Sejima for Comme des Garçons at the Museum of Contemporary Art Tokyo 
The spacial design by Sejima is subtly reflective with Rei Kawakubo’s extraordinary shapes and colours floating throughout. The clothes cease to exist as individual garments and become unified as parts of one work. The show makes evident many similarities between the architect and the designer. Sejima is well known for radically reconsidering accepted notions of space and built environments, also demanding thought and participation from anyone who experiences her work. The garments are virtually unrecognizable in the photographs, reminding us how closely aligned Kawakubo’s work is to the realms of sculpture and architecture.
