In-between The Foliage

In-between The Foliage / Crawley Couture Exhibition / Green Way Art Prize 2024

In-between the Foliage’. A collaborative performance exhibition that explored camouflage, inspired by the survival strategies of insects that blend seamlessly with their environments. In conversation with movement artist Risako Katsumata, the dialogue extends from garment and environment through to performance. Together, we explored how the wearer can engage with their surroundings in ways that echo the camouflaging strategies of insects. This performance piece moved and weaved through the audience, it invited viewers to consider the garment not only as a static object but as a living extension of the environment, capable of shifting and adapting in real time.

Materials: Mesh burned velvet, fabric scraps
