Artistic Ballet Collaboration
Munich, Germany | July 2025
Title:
"Pirouette in Bloom"
Artists / Collaborators:
Chelsea Jean Lamm × Robyn Hodges (ballet dancer) × Yolanda x Alex (creative direction)
Date:
July 2025
Category:
Collaboration
Location:
Munich, Germany
__
Archive Description:
“Pirouette in Bloom” is an artistic collaboration exploring the relationship between sculptural garment, movement and the human body.
Created in Munich in 2025, the project features ballet dancer Robyn Hodges embodying two works by Chelsea Jean Lamm: “Apus” (2022) and “Victima” (2025).
Inspired by the iridescent wings of the bird of paradise, “Apus” transforms silk into a sculptural expression of movement and transformation. Composed of thousands of individually hand-draped elements, each carefully sewn by hand, the work reflects Chelsea Jean Lamm’s commitment to craftsmanship, material memory and the creation of wearable artworks that exist between fashion, sculpture and performance.
Through the collaboration with Robyn Hodges, the garments become activated through movement, revealing their relationship with the body, gravity and space.
Captured by Yolanda x Alex, the photographic series explores the intersection of dance, contemporary art and Cultural Couture, where the wearer becomes an integral part of the artwork itself.

Location:
Cape Town, South Africa

Archive Description:
Created in Cape Town in June 2025, this artistic collaboration brings together the visual language of South African photographer and filmmaker Jacques Weyers with the sculptural wearable artworks of Chelsea Jean Lamm.
Developed through a shared connection to landscape, storytelling and contemporary African creativity, the collaboration allowed Jacques Weyers complete creative freedom to interpret Chelsea Jean Lamm’s garments through his own artistic perspective.
Set against the textures and atmosphere of the South African coastline, the resulting imagery explores the relationship between body, environment, movement and imagination.
The collaboration continues Chelsea Jean Lamm’s exploration of wearable art as a medium that exists beyond fashion, becoming part of a wider visual narrative shaped by place, memory and cultural exchange.
The garments ~ created through Chelsea Jean Lamm’s collaboration with collage artist Ashley Elizabeth Lamm ~ enter a new dialogue with Jacques Weyers’ photographic practice, which reflects the landscapes, identities and creative spirit of the African continent.
Featuring model Nomvelo Mabaso, with hair and make-up by Sam Scarborough, the project celebrates the power of artistic collaboration and the emergence of new visual languages through shared trust, intuition and creative freedom.

Jacques Weyers Manifesto
Cape Town, South Africa | June 2025
Title:
"Jacques Weyers Manifesto ~ A Cinematic Portrait of Chelsea Jean Lamm’s Wearable Art"
Creative Director and Cinematographer:
Jacques Weyers
Designer:
Chelsea Jean Lamm
Date:
June 2025
Category:
Moving Image & Artistic Collaborations
Location:
Cape Town / Western Cape, South Africa
__
Archive Description:
Created in South Africa in June 2025, this moving image work by photographer and filmmaker Jacques Weyers places Chelsea Jean Lamm’s sculptural wearable artworks within a deeply rooted cultural and natural landscape.
Rather than presenting the garments within a traditional fashion environment, Jacques Weyers’ cinematography explores their relationship with the land itself.
Set amongst the textures of the South African landscape, where cattle, goats and sheep move freely through the surroundings, the film creates a dialogue between contemporary couture, nature and everyday rural life.
The work reflects Jacques Weyers’ ongoing visual exploration of African landscapes and cultural identity, transforming the garments into part of a larger narrative about place, memory and belonging.
The slow, cinematic approach allows the environment to become an active participant ~ not merely a backdrop, but an extension of the artwork.
Through this collaboration, Chelsea Jean Lamm’s wearable sculptures are recontextualised within a living ecosystem, highlighting the connection between craftsmanship, cultural heritage and the natural world. The resulting moving image piece becomes an exploration of African visual storytelling, where fashion, art and landscape exist in continuous conversation.

Artistic Collaboration: Carina Shoshtary x Ashley Elizabeth Lamm x Chelsea Jean Lamm x Nina Zimolong
Munich, Germany | 2022
Title:
Chelsea Jean Lamm x Ashley Elizabeth Lamm x Carina Shoshtary x Nina Zimolong ~ Interdisciplinary Artistic Collaboration
Project:
Artistic Collaboration
Garment Featured:
“Serpens”
Date:
2022
Location:
Munich, Germany
Category:
Artistic Collaboration
__
Archive Description:
This artistic collaboration brings together the distinct creative languages of designer Chelsea Jean Lamm, visual artist Ashley Elizabeth Lamm, jewellery and object artist Carina Shoshtary and photographer Nina Zimolong.
Rather than functioning as a traditional fashion campaign, the project explores the dialogue between contemporary fashion, fine art, handcrafted objects and photography. Through the combination of sculptural garment design, analogue collage, jewellery craftsmanship and visual storytelling, the collaboration creates an immersive artistic narrative that exists between wearable sculpture and contemporary image-making.
The garment “Serpens” by Chelsea Jean Lamm becomes the central sculptural element along side Carina Shoshtary's handprinted 3D face mask within this interdisciplinary exchange, embodying the designer’s ongoing exploration of transformation, mythology and the relationship between the human body and artistic expression.
In collaboration with Ashley Elizabeth Lamm, whose analogue collage practice transforms discarded printed materials into intricate visual compositions, and Carina Shoshtary, whose handcrafted jewellery works introduce elements of symbolism and sculptural adornment, the project demonstrates how different artistic disciplines can converge to create a shared visual language.
Captured through the lens of Nina Zimolong, the collaboration presents fashion as a medium for storytelling, artistic exploration and emotional communication.
This work reflects Chelsea Jean Lamm’s broader practice of positioning avant-garde couture within the contemporary art dialogue, where garments become vessels for imagination, craftsmanship and conceptual exploration.

Title:
Interdisciplinary Artistic Collaboration in the Natural Landscape
Project:
Collaborative Image-Making
Date:
2022
Location:
Austria
Category:
Interdisciplinary Art Collaboration
__
Archive Description:
This interdisciplinary artistic collaboration brings together the creative practices of fashion designer Chelsea Jean Lamm, collage artist Ashley Elizabeth Lamm, photographer Nina Zimolong, model Selina Gock and hair and make-up artist Nadia Agriiants.
Rather than functioning as a traditional fashion editorial, the work explores the relationship between the human body, sculptural couture and the natural landscape. Set within the presence of flowing water, the collaboration investigates themes of transformation, movement and humanity's enduring connection to nature.
The landscape becomes an active participant in the visual narrative. Water, stone and vegetation are integral elements that shape the atmosphere of the work, creating a dialogue between the garment, the body and the surrounding environment.
Chelsea Jean Lamm's sculptural couture is presented alongside Ashley Elizabeth Lamm's artistic vision, demonstrating the ongoing exchange between fashion design and contemporary fine art that has become central to their collaborative practice.
Captured through Nina Zimolong's photographic language and embodied by Selina Gock, the project dissolves the boundaries between fashion photography, performance and contemporary image-making.
The collaboration reflects Chelsea Jean Lamm's broader philosophy of wearable art, where garments are conceived as part of larger visual narratives that connect craftsmanship, landscape, storytelling and artistic collaboration.
Rather than documenting fashion, the work explores how multiple creative disciplines can come together to create an immersive artistic experience rooted in nature, imagination and shared authorship.
