Various Editorials: Inner Child Exhibition New York

Nov 2025

The Inner Child Exhibition New York presents a striking synthesis of avant-garde fashion and sculptural art. Captured in a high-contrast monochrome aesthetic, the series features models styled in dark, sleek silhouettes—ranging from vinyl and leather to sheer mesh—adorned with elaborate, tubular metallic balloon installations. These reflective forms, twisted into floral halos, futuristic headpieces, and wearable sculptures, create a surreal dialogue between soft organic curves and the industrial grit of urban transit settings. Photographed by Wikkie Hermkens with fashion styling by Sonny Groo, the project emphasizes a moody, minimalist approach to portraiture. The work leans into chiaroscuro and soft natural light to define the metallic luster of the balloon props against atmospheric, out-of-focus city backdrops. By blending street-level documentation with studio-focused sculptural study, the exhibition highlights the tension between wearable art and human form.
