This is an idea for a clothing performance piece I hope to do one day.
Plant Prosthetic
Title: Plant Prosthetic
Size: 12″ x 9″
Materials: 200 lb. white paper & pencil
I have this fantasy that I will create artificial limbs or tree prosthetics for trees that have been injured. When the tree eventually dies, the artificial limbs would be a poetic reference to what was.
Clothing Performance: Nomad (video), 2007
Nomad, 2007 (video)
In this video, I take the viewer on a tour of a hotel closet, reading the tags on the garments as I pack to leave. These words spell out the following poem:
Dreams Divided The Natural Uniti
One Free Voice Above The Crowd
R Nomad Identity InStride
Spellbound Acrobat S Bridge The Gap
A Tightrope Outline Barely There
I’m Absolutely Pale
Solitude S Rare Essence
U Breakaway Speechless 2xist
To Draw Next, 2004
Size: 15″ x 11″
Materials: 200 lb. white paper & pencil
At one point, I had a pile of sketches about clothing sculptures spread across several sketchbooks. I wanted to develop them into finished drawings so I made this sketch as a sort of to-do list. Many of these thumbnails become finished drawings.
