In Between: Heaven and Earth

Pricilla Chiquita Mintura

Indonesia

As a fashion designer, Pricilla Chiquita Mintura is interested in infusing intangible stories from heritage and culture into creative pattern cutting. She views her garments as a canvas for storytelling, inviting viewers to engage deeply with fashion. She is committed to making each contemporary fashion piece a wearable story.

This project aims to reconnect Chinese Indonesians with their ancestral roots through heritage sustainability in architecture, social class, cosmology, and costumes, presented in contemporary fashion. Chinese architectural blueprints reflect social and gender class placement within homes, influenced by cosmological symbolism channelling heaven. This collection explores blueprint-inspired pattern cutting and shapes infused with cosmological concepts, bridging tradition with modernity.
