Inspired by the tactile and naturalistic quality of Tom Lipop's pieces, Aoife contrasts the designer's AW13 Design Forum Collection against the aftermath of an apocalypse in a short film commissioned by River Island.
The film's atmospheric and emotive narrative explores the intimate everyday moments of a lone survivor, focusing on the psychology of his solitary existence. Using clothing as a last emblem of identity and humanity, the film explores themes of heroism and the illuminating effect of unconventional friendships in a desolate environment.
