Vanishing Silhouette / Jordan Roth
Set against the grandeur of the Louvre, this piece captures a rare moment of stillness and spectacle where fashion becomes performance and presence. Jordan Roth’s Radical Acts of Unrelenting Beauty offers a meditation on identity, movement, and transformation. What follows is a reflection on that ephemeral moment and the profound way it reshaped the role of the body in fashion.

When Barry and Michèle first crossed paths in the quiet surrealism of Venice, a wordless connection sparked between sculptor and collector; rooted in observation, curiosity and creation. After a Milan morning spent wandering potential exhibition spaces to exhibit the bust Barry sculpted of Michèle Lamy and the Rick Owens boutique –like ghosts casing a temple– we sat down to speak. About monolithic stones. About machines. About art as resistance; against time, against meaninglessness, against death itself.

/by Editor NastyReturn of the Maker
In an age of fast fashion and faster algorithms, the act of making by hand is more than a hobby. It’s a quiet rebellion. As mass production dulls originality, makers are reclaiming time, skill, and personal expression. This return to craft isn’t about going backwards, it’s about moving forward with care, intention, and creative autonomy.

Spirito Sangue by Lorenzo Montinaro is an excavation of death, memory, and time. Set in Taranto, a city haunted by industrial decay and environmental collapse, the exhibition explores mortality not as an end, but as a condition of existence. Through fragments of marble, erased inscriptions and relics soaked in caducity, Montinaro constructs fragile monuments that resist disappearance, dwelling in erosion, yet standing against oblivion.

Ibiza reveals its true rhythm when you step back from the noise. At Nobu Hotel Ibiza Bay, nestled in the quiet curve of Talamanca Bay, the island hums rather than pulses. Just far enough from the chaos, it offers a softer kind of sanctuary—where floor-to-ceiling windows and open terraces mean you wake to the scent of wild jasmine and fall asleep to the sound of the waves.
