her hand of god: bound bound bound
charcoal drawings
wood pedestal
Navy poly blend fabric, gold thread, leather ribbon, gauze
rigid wrap plaster, acrylic paint, gold powder, thread
This is the first sculpture project I've ever done. I continued on the themes I've been using this trimester of religion and the woman's form. The first is a garment that deals with religious women's garments and how they can suffocate in a very extreme way. The second is an abstract exploration of praying hands. The pedestal is also my own work - it only took me 14 hours but a good a experience nonetheless. I plan on reworking and expanding on these pieces for my final five collection.

Fashion is the armor to survive everyday life. I don't think we could do away with it, it would be like doing away with civilization.

manipulation
This was our project from the second week of core studio. We used sewing with muslim and whatever other materials we wanted to create a garment that would change the way we saw the figure. My garment had no arm holes, and was laced in with only the hands showing in the back. The skirt used wire to create the strong lines, and the ability to stand up.
With these costumes, we all took turns wearing them while our class drew us. Then at the end of the day, we used some cool lighting and various people to get shadows and an interesting composition. We didn't end up drawing this, it was more of a fun experiment. As you can see, we got some really cool looking photos.
