Moynat Paris - Celebration of the opening of the boutique at Marina Bay Sands in Singapore.

In the tradition of « rencontres » or meeting of minds that Moynat Artistic Director Ramesh Nair deploys to trigger creativity, this installation is the fruit of a collision of ideas and visions between him and Theseus Chan, widely regarded as the godfather of Singapore graphic design. A meeting of minds that is rooted in a shared vision of liberating creativity from constraints, mining emotions, cross-pollination across a range of creative fields and a rejection of compromise to arrive at an original expression. This installation at Marina Bay Sands for the opening of the Moynat gallery showcases Moynat heritage through the French House’s historic trunks over 100 years old, poised on transparent megaliths, standing stones that act as physical and spiritual markers in our journey through time and space. The transparency of the megaliths makes the trunks seem to float in the air, representing the lightness and grace with which Moynat carries its history. Using motion graphics, Theseus, in his signature approach created a video collage of graffiti - hypnotic strobes, glitches, statics and white noise using iconic elements of Moynat imagery as a starting point. The videos monitors are perched on an exposed deconstructed platform contrasting sharply with the pristine megaliths that seem to break through the ground, soaring upwards in a quest for perfection.
