The sense of Kyiv mentality - BAUHAUS

A KALTBLUT exclusive. "My name is Anna van der Velde I am a young (fashion)film director and videographer from Amsterdam. One month ago I visited Kyiv to create some fashion films. During the trip, I made a short video series in collaboration with two young, independent designers from Kyiv. With the shoot, I hope to capture a sense of Kyiv mentality. The video series balances industrialism and naturalism, something that I find very interesting about Ukraine. Contradiction is a word that in my opinion could describe the vibe of this city. Handmade crochet designs placed in natural surroundings with a flash of brutalism. Back in Amsterdam, I teamed up with Dj/producer Max Abysmal to elevate the videos into Kyiv atmosphere."
