Abstract [en]

Question of what is fashion in relation to climate anxiety is addressed here through series of photographs displaying textile installations. The project « Garde-robe sensible » is challenging expression of fashion in a practice-based manner. Five series of vivid bio colors on dead-stock silk are installed in the landscape, activated, arranged and manipulated in various ways, interacting with weather and in-situ designs. These installations are situated in a bodily practice and relate to garment as a trace and materiality, as well as work of imagination. Together with images of these fashion-related installations, text propositions address link between image and fashion. Viewer’s interpretation of the results is therefore guided through curation of series organized in categories and explained through curatorial texts. It questions practice of fashion and potential for imagination more than just material object. Photography can be a method for more conceptual, experimental, poetic format. In that sense, this project investigates dress as sensual material conveying broader meaning than presentation, representation and function. It investigates emotion volatility, relating agency to the world, to nature, to body and how to engage viewer emotionally.
