Working Girl
These past few weeks have been quite busy….I have spent a lot of time manipulating materials to make a piece of wearable of art for the show Fashion ARTillery that will take place at the Armory Art Center in West Palm Beach, FL in February.
My vision involves using everyday, household materials to make this piece of art. Paper clips, cardboard, and coffee filters take on a whole new shape—they have also overtaken the living room!
This has been quite the journey. I have been honored to be a part of a show that allows me to combine my love of art and fashion. Below are some pictures of my process…
