SCULPTURAL CLOTHING AS ART

Abbie Miller

Course Description
How do sculpture and fashion collide? In this class we will focus on fabric manipulation and sculptural techniques as a way to construct functional clothing. Using the basic a-line skirt as a foundation we will create three-dimensional garments that express volume, mass and space. Students will explore personal ideas through a range of materials including cloth, plastic, boning, and paper in relationship to the body. A history about the conflation of art and clothing will be covered as well as contemporary fiber artists and designers.
Sewing machine required, hand sewing, and some textile experience preferred.
