Pop-ups

Explore unique mini-exhibits throughout the evening. Each pop-up features a designer or maker, offering an up-close look at their work, including apparel, jewelry, and artistic accessories.

Kunterakt

The collective Kunterakt works as a collaborative medium in several areas of fashion. Their focus is on sustainability, and they work mostly with post-consumer textile waste. At the Zine opening, Kunterakt presents a spatial site-specific installation that explores the redefinition of textile material waste. It questions the unchanging (non)functioning of the fashion cycle, explores its boundaries, and the visitor is invited to disrupt its structure. The materials and the joints are deliberately processed so that the object destroys itself to some extent.

SELENoLAr

SELENoLAr is an electronic music duo based in Prague, consisting of bedroom producer, promoter, and DJ, Weimar, and vocalist Wiki. While their music is largely shaped by intentional accidents, SELENoLAr likes to think they are diverging from established forms of club music.

Their debut album, Dissymetria, is living proof of their experimental nature. Beginning with soft sounds, the album transitions into club music, showcasing their refusal to compromise when it comes to…anything.

This event is curated by the international volunteers of A4: Paula Díaz, Amélie Pret & Eduarda Palmeira
