2.9.2023—3.12.2023
MAK Geymüllerschlössel
Technical perfection is a central element of her work, not only in terms of craftsmanship. Her technology-savvy designs are also conceptually focused on topics like artificial intelligence or big data as well as innovative technologies and materials in fashion. Although technology is generally connoted as masculine, Flora Miranda is particularly interested in its feminine side(s). The focus in the process is just as much on femininely legible self-representation—especially in the Internet—and female ideal body images as well as related dimensions like sexuality or erotic as on female self-empowerment and power.

The (CON)TEMPORARY FASHION SHOWCASE launched in 2022 at the MAK Geymüllerschlössel is entering its second season. In exhibitions, the series combines fashion design with art which deals with clothing and dressing. Thematically related discussions and event programs are organized on selected weekends.

In 2023, two exhibitions dedicated to fashion and its critical potential will take place, inviting us to “think through fashion.”

In the 2023 season, the Geymüllerschlössel will be open from 13 May-3 December, 2023, Saturdays and Sundays, 10 am-6 pm. Admission: € 7. More information
