The collections’ vivid narratives illustrate a world walked by delicate yet bold and complex personalities. Designs, encompassing clothing, shoes, and accessories, are meticulously crafted with a focus on sophisticated silhouettes, distinct colour combinations and fabrication. He founded his label Shone Puipia, with a unique view of the uncompromising beauty of contemporary luxury wear.

In 2023, Cuenca Rasmussen was conferred the Thorvaldsen Medal and the New Carlsberg Award.
Many of these themes reflect Cuenca Rasmussen’s dual nationality with her Filipino mother and Danish father, making her artistic practice distinct since she points to several cultures simultaneously and, through her art, defines a third position: creating her own home in and with the artwork to take with her wherever she goes. Adopting a critical and humorous approach, she asks questions about ethnicity, identity, gender, social relations, and affiliation. Text and other mechanisms, such as music, costumes, and stringent scenography, play a significant role in her narratives. Lilibeth Cuenca Rasmussen (DK) is a performance and visual artist who, throughout her career, has evolved a definite cross-aesthetic expression. As a new character is revealed, Cuenca Rasmussen will be stripping them off like the Russian Babushka dolls. The elaborate and intricate costumes created by Thai fashion designer Shone Puipia consisting of four layers, serve as markers in the identity shifts. Delivering a selection of original text accompanied by live and recorded music and donning an elaborate costume doubling as her set, Cuenca Rasmussen’s performance bears with it multiple characters that shift between an activist, a preacher, a sorcerer, a queen, queer and a wonder woman. Fluid Transitions is a performance work by Cuenca Rasmussen that reflects on existential matters in a time of significant paradigm shifts where chaos is vital to make a new order. Conceived initially as a process-based artistic intervention as an invitation to reflect on the works by Southeast Asian female artists like Pinaree Sanpitak, Pacita Abad, Mella Jaarsma, Brenda Fajardo and Fatimah Chik on display at the National Gallery Singapore, Fluid Transitions has since evolved over the three-year period of ongoing conversation amongst the collaborators.įollowing its premiere at the National Gallery Singapore, the organisers proudly bring a unique iteration of Fluid Transitions for the Manila audiences.
