The Berlin based brand SIA ARNIKA founded by the Danish designer by the same name, is a brand that blends minimalism and maximalism to create a distinct and alternative reality. It infuses cultural references and narratives to explore current cultural developments and old tales. The designs challenge conventional norms through experimental normality, where opposing forces coexist in the same universe. The collections often draw inspiration from folklore, mysticism, and memories, as seen in the use of intricate deliberate distressing, and unconventional shapes. The brand’s designs are often seen as a reflection of the contemporary culture in Berlin. The aim is to provoke thought by harmoniously blending anonymity and bold self-expression. The focus on sustainable production and high craftsmanship promotes slow fashion and respects the art of making clothes.
