Abstract Details

2009, MFA, Kent State University, College of the Arts / School of Art.
For my thesis in textiles I created a collection of sculptural dress pieces that were constructed from fabrics that incorporate text as a design element. My primary focus was centered on the intersection of fashion and popular culture, specifically the confessional culture of western society. The forms of the dress pieces are determined by the concepts of hiding ones true feelings or camouflaging true intent. I examined the juxtaposition of interior emotions with exterior revelations that are deemed socially acceptable. To create the prints I download several confessions from a variety of web sites. I arranged these quotes into a pattern and used a digital printer to print on chiffon and organza.
