Medium ~ VCR Tapes
For this pieces I really wanted
to highlight technology into
fashion. I feel that we take
advantage of clothing as we
wear things day in and day out
without thinking of the
technology behind them. In
thinking of the material used in the fabric as well as the technological power that was used to mass produce such clothing, I thought of using old VHS tapes. I started by taking them apart, looking at their parts and reusing them in different ways. The film strips were flexible and perfect to weave. I created a runway costume that is almost robotic yet elegant.
