Dress as sculptural form. Dress as the sculpture and its material as communicating language

Abstract

[EN] The following work of this Master Thesis is the 4th typology and continues the artistic practice following the idea which I began in the year 2000 in Estonia. This body of work is an artistic view of the dress as a sculptural form using unusual materials. The material is a communicator, like a language. The aim of this Master Thesis is to extend working with the same form - the dress to express, to explore the notion of personal space, the boundaries of identity, and the relationship between the individual and the collective body. Its material and techniques are used as the language which starts a conversation with the viewer, through their characteristics.

This thesis is divided into two parts: ¿ The first part is focused on the form of the dress: its characteristics and form as a sculptural object. To the material and the way to see the material as language. And end of that part the reference artists. ¿ The second part is focused on created sculptural objects, the stories they tell, the materials and techniques used during creative process.
