“ I love life fiercely, desperately. And I believe this ferocity, this despair will bring me to an end. Love the sun, grass, youth. The love of life has become a more killer vice for me than cocaine. I devour my existence with an insatiable appetite. How will all this end? I don’t know it.”

- Pier Paolo Pasolini

balenciaga winter 22 Creative director, Demna Gvasalia was a child when he and his family fled the war in Georgia. The collection was displayed within a circular arena filled with snow and wind. In his show notes, Demna writes, “The war in Ukraine has triggered the pain of a past trauma I have carried in me since 1993, when the same thing happened in my home country and I became a forever refugee. Forever, because that’s something that stays in you. The fear, the desperation, the realization that no one wants you.”

“May everything come true, may they believe - and may they laugh at their passions. For what they call passion is not really the energy of the soul, but merely friction between the soul and the outside world. But above all, they must believe in themselves and become as helpless as children. For softness is great and strength is worthless. When a man is born, he is soft and pliable. When he dies, he is strong and hard. When a tree grows, it is soft and pliable. When it is dry and hard, it dies. Hardness and strength are death’s companions. Flexibility and softness are the embodiment of life. That which has become hard - will not triumph.”

- Andrei Tarkovsky, Stalker,
