Proteus is a performative editorial. Based on Robert Jay Lifton’s theory of the protean self, it explores the expressions and effects of the fluid and multifaceted identity produced by our postmodern society. The name itself comes from the Greek god of water Proteus, a shapeshifter. The editorial mixes frames from the performance shot with a Video8 camera with moments abstracted from that performance and minimalist portraits of the performers. It features pieces from amazing young London designers.
