Graduation Collection 'Semen of the Gods’

Aphrodite, Goddess of Love and Grace, came from the sea. The word aphros means foam in Greek.
Semen fell from heaven into the ocean, the semen of the Father of the Gods.
It made a rich foam and the Goddess of love appeared, errar per le onde in bianca schiume
wrote a poet at the Court of the Medici – and heavens rejoiced, e par che ‘l ciel ne goda.
For Plato, the nature of his birth was such that it had better be buried in silence,
unless a chosen few hear of it in the form of mystery

My creations try to express this mystery As King Charles II’s fiend, Charles Sedly wrote:
Love still has something of the sea / From whence his mother rose…
And if I gazed a thousand years / I could no deeper love.

United States of Mind

The Spring/Summer 2004 collection of Arkadius will express his reflections and concerns at the present global politics. What can we do in the present situation? We are terrifyingly vulnerable. But we have intelligence. And we must cling to hope. The collection is called „United States Of Mind”. A positive philosophy of intuition, grace and mind is the only to fight the evil of consumer obsessed, spiritless power. Give your own personal statement of courage. Put on Arkadius!

spring/summer 2001

Paulina

The collection is inspired by life in the country in Poland, not the elegance of the aristocratic estate, but by the workers and family small holders who Arkadius knew as a child. He remembers his grandmother, Paulina, showing him her mother’s clothes, and how little the styles of the people have changed: easy linens and cottons for harvesting, for stacking straw or looking for blueberries and mushrooms in the forest. A toweling material for when you have swam in rivers after work. Arkadius also found joy in the country festivals of Poland. He is inspired by what people wore for such celebrations as „Noc Swietojanska” – St. John’s Night on 24 June, when crowns of pleated straw were made. Candles were lit in them and they were put on the rivers to float for blessing and good luck.
