Showcasing the Talent
Exhibitions
The exhibitions of Time for (S) Heroes offer emerging designers a real opportunity to be seen. For the teams that succeed in the open call, the final phase of the journey includes both physical and digital showcases across Europe. These exhibitions present polished fashion and costume designs, installations and digital outfits created during the residencies and incubation phase.
Digital exhibition platform
Alongside the physical exhibitions, the project develops a Digital Exhibition platform. This online environment will store and present design artefacts, videos and the creative process in an accessible format for international audiences.
While it highlights the work of the winning teams, it is likely to feature a wider group of participants too, offering additional visibility and a space to share work beyond geographical limits. The platform is still under development, and designers interested in showcasing their work are encouraged to stay tuned for updates.
Collaborate with us?
In addition to the main exhibitions, the project welcomes collaboration with festivals and events interested in presenting the strongest design outcomes in 2027. This may include cultural spaces, game and digital art festivals, design events or other public forums where innovative fashion, costume and installation art can reach new audiences.
Partners and event organizers are invited to get in touch for discussions on possible cooperation: kati.viljakainen(at)xamk.fi.
