25 yEARS ANNIVERSARY SHOW STUDIO EXHIBITION
EXHIBITION- 25 YEARS SHOW STUDIO
To mark the 25th anniversary of SHOWstudio, visionary fashion photographer Nick Knight curated a landmark exhibition and limited-edition collector's box inspired by Marcel Duchamp's Museum in a Box. Celebrating twenty-five years of pioneering creativity, the project brought together contributions from some of the world's most influential figures across fashion, art, and culture, including John Galliano, Iris van Herpen, Rick Owens, Manolo Blahnik, Edward Enninful, Kate Moss, Michelle Lamy, Paolo Roversi, Simone Rocha, Julia Fox, the Vivienne Westwood Foundation, and many others. Rachelle Cunningham was invited to collaborate on this special anniversary project alongside the distinguished roster of international creatives.
For the exhibition, Nick Knight produced a series of 3D-printed portrait sculptures, inviting Rachel to transform three of them through her signature hand-painted practice using ink and acrylic. Applying her distinctive painterly language directly onto the sculptural forms, she created unique artworks that merged portraiture, fashion, and fine art. The finished sculptures were exhibited at SHOWstudio in London before becoming part of the limited-edition anniversary collector's boxes, celebrating the collaborative spirit and creative legacy that has defined SHOWstudio over the past twenty-five years.
