Float/Undercover
By Lucy Brown
2006
Stephen Parsons
This work has two titles. If installed from the shoulders, hanging, then work is titled 'Float'. When installed on floor it is titled 'Undercover'. The original garment used is a St Michael nylon nightdress, to fit bust size 38/402, which had two layers. It is the inner layer, which has been reconstructed through weave, exploring the inners self, which often remains hidden.
