RENAISSANCE 2026: GLOBAL ORIGINS: STORIES UNTOLD
About this Event
What happens when 20 young creatives from across the world are given one room to tell their stories?
From Nigeria to Taiwan, North Macedonia to Indonesia and beyond, a new generation of designers and artists are bringing the stories of home with them to Devonshire Square.
Not through speeches.
But through clothes. Paint. Photography. Sculpture. Fabric. Performance.
Stories of culture, migration, memory, folklore, family and identity, translated into work you can stand in front of, walk around and watch come down a runway.
Renaissance began with a room of 250 people. It sold out with zero paid promotion. Since then, our work has reached 138K+ views and 23K+ people organically.
Now, the room gets bigger.
Global Origins: Stories Untold brings runway, exhibition and live creative work together for one evening in Central London.
Come curious.
You may leave knowing a name the rest of the industry hasn’t discovered yet.
