Ora Ito's concept for Wallpaper and Reebok

Ora Ito's concept for Wallpaper and Reebok with LG HI-MACS®

http://www.ora-ito.com/news/ora-itos-concept-for-wallpaper-and-reebok-with-lg-hi-macs

Never mind the upper of Reebok’s RealFlex shoe for Ora-ïto, the interest lies all in the sole. The sole is the most beautiful part of a trainer, says Ora-ïto. It’s there that the sense of movement and the graphic power is found. It’s like a landscape. It is exactly that idea that Ora-ïto has realised in the form of a pop art-inspired bas-relief work, a sculpture painting that echoes the 76 independent sensors on the sole of the RealFlex in mid-twist and undulation. The piece, which is produced by Candido Hermida, is made of Hi-Macs®, a cuttable, thermo-formable, stone-like bauxite/acrylic mix, chosen for its ability to offer one unbroken, seamless sheet for the 3m-wide work, and with the strength to take the considerable weight. My style of dress is more classic now but I still have my trainer collection and I’d love to do the sole of all the iconic sneaker soles this way,’ says Ora-ïto.

Metamorphosis

Me&Edward is a Lyon based digital artist and photographer, we focus on his latest project called "Metamorphosis"

"Metamorphosis" is a concept about the unlimited transformations of human body. Just like a chameleon, it's fitting, just like a virus, it's mutating, just like a personality, it's changing. Something new is about to birth, a metamorphosis, an organic complexity.

Ora-Ïto Mutation Exhibition

Later last year world-famous enfant terrible of design Ora-Ïto presented Evo-Mobil for Citroen. And this month in Milan he revealed a second concept of a mobility - "UFO" - a juxtaposed piece of contemporary art and futuristic mobile vehicle.

On the edge of the hy­poth­e­­sis and con­tem­po­rary art, Ora-Ïto pre­sents hy­brid ob­­jects as­­so­­ci­at­ed to the re­search and in­­no­­va­­tion de­­part­­ment of the dy­­nas­tic Cit­roën. Bap­­tized «Evo­­mo­­bil» and “U­­FO” th­ese two monu­­men­­tal sculp­­tures are the cross­ing of Cit­roën’s Icons and a re­flec­­tion from the past to the fu­­ture. Based on the pro­cess of the evo­lu­­tion, the vi­­son of Ora-Ito com­bine his­­toric and so­­ci­o­log­i­­cal tes­ti­­mony by put­t­ing aside estab­lished codes. The icon­o­­clas­tic artist was not dream­ing about another con­­cept car but a ge­net­ic tran­s­­for­­ma­­tion to spread an uni­ver­sal mes­sage to the car in­­­dus­try through his ar­tis­tic vi­­sion and new di­rec­­tions nev­er in­­vesti­­gat­ed be­­fore
