Tonight at 1948 we will be celebrating the finale of our four, week-long Flyknit Collective workshops.
As our last workshop on Performance comes to an end this evening,
we’ve invited all the participants and innovators who took part in the
Flyknit Collective workshops on Sustainability, Lightness and
Formfitting to join us for the closing party hosted by NTS Radio and a
chance to see the work created over the past four weeks collectively for
the first time.
In the courtyard we’ll have the honour of unveiling the exciting
Nike Flyknit inspired artwork by one of Brazil’s leading contemporary
artists Ernesto Neto. Serving as a preview of what will be presented in
Brazil at the end of the summer in the nation’s capital, the woven
sculpture will be suspended in the courtyard of 1948. The sculpture
invites willing participants to climb into its netted enclosure,
stretch, relax and consider the qualities of formfitting structures and
their interaction with the human body.
While ahead of the third HTM Flyknit launch tomorrow at 1948, we
also have a brand new Nike Flyknit installation in store which showcases
its revolutionary and innovative technology. The first release in the
third HTM Flyknit collection will kick off this Saturday at 12PM with
the coveted black/blue glow colour way and the solid blue glow to follow
on Sunday 29th July.
HTM is the ongoing collaboration between style leader and
Fragment Design Founder Hiroshi Fujiwara, Nike design legend Tinker
Hatfield and Nike Inc. CEO and designer Mark Parker, celebrate the
groundbreaking performance attributes of a new technology that changes
the way footwear is constructed.
Take a closer look at the Nike Flyknit retail installation and black/blue HTM Flyknit after the jump.
