VILNIUS (Lithuania) - LIZARI CAMPUS (Latvia)

Business – Science – Art – Psychology - Education

CRISIS IN FASHION AND DESIGN: interdisciplinary view of the issue. PSYCHOLOGY OF IMAGES: how fashion images and design structure people’s minds,

impact choices and relate to self-realisation. FASHION ANTHROPOLOGY: social criteria versus criteria of life. FASHION SEMIOTICS: signs and meanings as tools for ruling the social norms. CREATION AS PROJECTION OF INNER STATE: what we create is what we are inside. CRISIS OF CREATIVE MIND: how art and media images structure minds and impact creativity.

CONSCIOUSNESS AND SENSITYIVITY: how to make our creative minds flourish by developing our consciousness and body awareness.

AUTHENTICITY AND INDIVIDUALITY: how fashion and design express true identity of the person. THE HIGHEST MEANING OF AESTHETICS: development of personality through experience of

beauty and pleasure. CHANGE OF FASHION PARADIGM: from culture of consumerism and imposition towards

development of authenticity and self-realisation of the person. NEW APPROACH TO CREATION: authentic work can only be created by authentic person. AUTHENTIC WORK AND SEARCH FOR INSPIRATION: nature, highest art, images born in

spontaneous act of creation; NEW WAYS FOR ACTING in areas of fashion, design and aesthetics:

– successful cases of applying criteria of life (organic architecture, aesthetic odontology, designer works in clothing, jewellery, interior design and other). – successful cases of using positive images (adaptation of sacred images, art improvisations, symbols of nature, etc.) – successful models of business concepts (viewing human as a whole, solving social problems, connecting different areas of activities, etc.) – successful examples of cooperation between creators.
