Dress with repeat pattern

Shelly Goldsmith

Dimensions
260cm x 79cm x 69cm

This piece explore the notion of residue left in the clothes we wear. Using woven name tape, in abundance, as a strong signifier of the identity of the wearer, a name, a story constructed over a life-time. The imagined story, hand stitched in woven tape in the interior of the garment is repeated over and over.
