Freudenthal/Verhagen

View this amazing short film, Dear Mr/Mrs, by creative duo Freudenthal/Verhagen. This video is made for the graduation show of the ArtEZ Master Fashion Design generation 12. The clothing throughout the video is designed by Jonathan Christopher Hofwegen, Zhengzheng Li, Yona van Mansfeld, Nick Rosenboom and Hanna Siwecki. Freudenthal/Verhagen work with fashion designers and other artists and make videos and images that result in diverse creations but always with the signature visualisation. Attention for detail and most of all love for visual effect is recognizable in their work. Besides the weird effects, shocking and controversial ideas seem to be key for each concept of Freudenthal/Verhagen.

Carmen Freudenthal and Elle Verhagen both graduated at the Gerrit Rietveld Academy. They worked several years for Bernhard Willhelm, where the duo did the lookbooks and directed some of the runway shows. They shot for i-D magazine, Jalouse, Dazed and Confused and BLEND. Freudenthal/Verhagen exhibited at MOMU in Antwerp, Museum of Modern Art in Arnhem and other international museums.
