Деякі колаборації плануються заздалегідь, а деякі виникають як природне продовження руху.
Ми розвивалися паралельно, формуючи власну естетику, простір і ком’юніті. Різні у формах, але близькі в підході та відчутті глибини.
Цього разу наші шляхи зійдуться в одному просторі, щоб сформувати новий спільний досвід.
Early Birds вже доступні за посиланням в біо.
Усі деталі незабаром.
