The theory of artistic contradictions in modern art revolves around the idea that artists intentionally juxtapose opposing elements to provoke thought, challenge conventions, and create complexity. Modern artists often explore this duality by incorporating contrasting elements, such as light and dark, chaos and order, and beauty and ugliness. These contradictions can create tension and a feeling of ambiguity, prompting the viewer to question their established norms.

As a concept-based designer, this artistic notion represents the core approach of the ULANDO-OSLER design DNA. I am intrigued by the subtle interplay between beauty and ugliness and its potential applications in the creation of product design. By eliminating the excessive clutter of decorative elements, we’re given the opportunity to focus on what holds real design significance.

Provocation cultivated through the exploration of textures and form has the power to redefine our perceptions of beauty and appropriateness in fashion. I believe this approach to creating form is less reliant on conventional shapes and design principles. Contradictory elements when properly aligned can create a pathway to innovation. My work seeks to explore these themes through a meaningful dialogue with today’s modern woman.
