Hayal Pozanti for Dior Lady Art #9
Hayal Pozanti seeks, on her canvases, to materialize and understand our relationship to the natural world. Through lush, organic forms in vivid, varied colors, she creates fantastical worlds where harmonic life takes shape. Her works, as conceptual as they are emotional, constitute a metaphor for human intelligence, directing the gaze into a fictional elsewhere that is irresistibly real.
For Dior Lady Art, she has designed three pieces on which are sketched her phantasmagorical vision of nature, like an invitation to exploration and movement. Dreamlike journeys into the heart of the mountains, the first two Lady Dior bags are adorned with athletic details drawn from one of her passions, trekking: sheepskin inserts, reminiscent of the lining of hiking boots, snap hooks, along with feet recalling the star-shaped tips of walking poles. The iconic "D, I, O, R" charms are reinvented in a hieroglyphic alphabet conceived by the artist. The last reinterpretation, a hand-painted clutch reveals a nocturnal panorama magnified by a cloud of rhinestones meticulously placed in a shower of entrancing comets. The interior, meanwhile, is covered with mirrors, offering a reading of oneself and the world.
