Designer Ju Bao’s creative process consistently challenges him to create without borders, transcending boundaries, whether between streetwear and art nouveau, jeans and sweater, or even borders between countries. Although Gorizia and Nova Gorica have been divided into two cities by a national border, they share the same biodiversity under the same geographical and climatic conditions. They also share the continental climate which allows the growth of two plants that have come to represent their different cultures. Ju Bao chose the rose of Nova Gorica and the grapevines of Gorizia, placing them organically within an Art Nouveau framework, thus creating an outfit that is a kind of symbiotic organism blurring boundaries between the two cities.
