Inner Storm

Shelly Goldsmith

Installation using a reclaimed wedding dress from Xenia, Ohio - the U.S. location receiving the highest incident of tornados on the globe. Imagining the latent residue left behind in worn clothing, the piece utilises woven name tape, and references a transcript of the radio broadcast from 4th April 1974 the day of the 'super outbreak' of tornados across Xenia, Ohio U.S.A.
