Don’t Touch the Fire is a multidisciplinary experience bringing together fine art, fashion, and film. It explores temptation, desire, and consequence. Why we are drawn to things we know may not be good for us, and what happens after we give in.

The entire experience takes place within the gallery. Guests begin with a seated presentation featuring short film and a live fashion presentation. As the presentation unfolds, the models move through the space and install the artwork as part of the performance. Fashion, film, and fine art come together in real time as the gallery transforms around the audience.

After the initial presentation, guests are invited to move freely throughout the gallery and experience the finished installation. They can walk through the space, sit with the work, talk, or simply take in the environment.
