This exhibition invites visitors to rediscover fashion from 1750 to 1830 and to view the past with a fresh perspective.
Our scenography uses new technologies, including artificial intelligence, to bring historical fashion back to life. Classical silhouettes meet digital imagination in a stimulating, sensory experience, with scents included thanks to Peter de Cupere.
Nothing is as it seems. Carpets, wallpaper, and curtains designed with AI technology initially appear to display elegant patterns, but a closer look reveals iPod cables winding across the walls like snakes and flowers that seem to cry. Technology and emotion literally weave through the fabrics.
The chamber music has been reimagined into an immersive soundscape, while historical costumes come alive in 3D experiences. In this way, fashion from the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries becomes tangible as a source of renewal and inspiration today.
In 2023, Pièce Montée was appointed as scenographer for two consecutive exhibitions at Modemuseum Hasselt. The challenge was to create one flexible design that could serve two content-wise very different projects: M&Others and Rococo Reboot!. Circular design was executed here with high quality.
