Can we overcome our human limitations and become more than we thought? With digital fashion, technology can improve our physical appearance and mental well-being. Technology and humanity create endless possibilities

for creativity and self- discovery, challenging us to redefine what it means to be human.

Suza comments “The line between human and machine is faint, leading us to constantly utilize technology to extend ourselves. How much can we add to ourselves before we cease to be human? This question, echoing through centuries of mythological tales, profoundly influences my work. Mythology serves as a lens to comprehend mortality and the primal aspects of human nature. But what if we are on the edge of embodying these mythologies quite literally?”

Suza’s innovative designs push fashion’s limits and make us consider how technology affects us.As we explore uncharted territory, we must face what it means to transcend humanity and become something else. Will progress make us lose ourselves, or will we find a way to live that combines the best of both worlds? We’re still defining humanity, so time will tell.

Suza continues “With my feminine view of the world, I aim to engage a broader audience within the technology sector, showcasing that beyond being merely technical, mundane, or even

apocalyptic, technology can also embody expression and aesthetics.”

She makes a place where new ideas and old traditions can live together peacefully, paving the way for a future that is more open and diverse. She challenges the idea that technology is only useful by showing through her imaginative designs that it can also be used for art.

We can find a balance that lets us grow as people while still being human by loving both old and new in art and fashion. Her creations make us think about how we can be open to new ideas while still staying true to our roots. In her work, Suza invites us to consider the possibilities of a harmonious coexistence of tradition and progress in a rapidly changing world. Finally, her visionary designs serve as a reminder that our connection to the past can inform and enrich our journey toward a constantly changing future.
