On Feb. 19, OTHER SIZE GALLERY by WORKNESS CLUB opens the exhibition. “The Shape of White” by Caterina Crepax.<\/mark><\/span><\/strong>
The Milanese artist’s solo show explores the boundary between contemporary art, fashion and design, transforming paper into clothes-sculpture and ephemeral architecture.<\/strong><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Born in Milan, Caterina Crepax<\/strong> grew up in a creative environment and developed an autonomous artistic research that is now internationally recognized. An interior architect, artist and lecturer, he creates wearable or scenic paper sculptures<\/strong>, exhibited in prestigious international settings, up to the 2025 exhibition at Milan’s La Scala Theater.<\/strong><\/p>

Paper, often reused, is worked through folds, inlays and pleats, resulting in empty<\/strong>, chrysalis-like garments<\/strong> that preserve the memory of imaginary bodies. A poetic play of metamorphosis combining sustainability and imagination.<\/p>

For Catherine, white<\/strong> is silence, mental space and infinite possibility. A sheet of paper to be engraved and transformed into volume, where the void becomes form and the creative gesture gives rise to new narratives.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

The exhibition presents four dress-sculptures<\/strong> made between 2010 and 2026, flanked by the previously unseen work Favola barocca<\/strong>, a tribute to Baroque and Lecce stone, in which excess is transformed into lightness.<\/p>

Preparatory drawings<\/strong>, which tell the story of the artist’s creative process and dialogue with the three-dimensional works, complete the itinerary. Caterina Crepax’s is a fashion that does not follow fashion<\/strong>, but reinterprets it with irony and freedom, crossing eras, imaginaries and future visions. An invitation to return to the blank sheet of paper as a space of creative freedom.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
