Jersey Dress, Lie van der Werff

Lie van der werf researched when objects loos their function and their shape. What remains is a fragile part of the object itself. How things become a shade of themselves. I think that is a very interesting concept.

The artwork got me thinking about, jellyfish/ puppet man/ something that drips (candles, wet fabrics or paper) paper-mâché? / different layers that together show the object but as one it says nothing/ slime/ pink chewing gum/ Hanging flower, but also it has kind of a hospital feeling, stait jacket?

...

These are some ideas that I want to combine with the artwork to make my own reproduction. A reproduction that shows the dress even more as a shade of itself. Maybe even look like something whole different but it could still be a dress.

For The copy I thought of some different ideas:

1 plastic f18 with a pink color (I know that this could work because I have done some research in the second year) Or some plastic like stuff that is more movable or softer. That it gets a skin/ flesh like feeling like the color of the dress.

2 weaving with gum like material or plaster because it has the same color and hospital feeling when you look at it, elastic could also work because the artwork it is just hanging around and it looks like when you pull it it could jump up like elastic.

3 felting of the dress.

I did a few experiments.

...

And found a lot of art and fashion that looks a lot like or has the same feeling as the artwork of lie van der werff.
