About

Biophilic Continuum by The Web is an intimate and curated experience that highlights emerging fashion designers, live musicians, performing artists, and set designers to create an unforgettable yet thought-provoking experience centering young artists in 2025 in San Francisco. As part of the fashion show set design, we created a 16x16ft bamboo sculpture that hung from the rafters of the Fort Mason Firehouse.

Cycles of change and our continuous interplay with the cycles that create us is the them of this show. Macro or micro, these cycles are experienced in as small as personal everyday life, to as large as the current state of our natural world. Follow a production on this night where we follow the cycles of change through three acts throughout this production: Abundance, Destruction, and Regrowth. 

Through Biophilic Continuum, artists of The Web invited audiences to connect and re-evaluate their relationship with nature, each other, and community as it relates to the collective in 2025. To be curious about what is still here, what we create, in this moment. With a focus on sustainability and creativity, Biophilic Continuum invited reflection on the interconnectedness of our world and the actions we can take to shape the future.

The Web is a creative collective based out of San Francisco, uniting emerging artists of different mediums to foster community and nurture creative development. As part of the growing movement of art collectives sprouting in the city, an increased focus on fashion sustainability, and grassroots fashion shows, The Web presented Biophilic Continuum, a fashion performance focused on diversity, sustainability, and community cocreation. This is highlighted with their landmark fashion show in collaboration with the historic Fort Mason Center for Arts & Culture.
