Vickie Martin "My Heart is on Fire"


Statement

There is a language of clothing and every dress tells a story. Working with layer upon layer, I expose things hidden by scraping top layers off, or melt layers together by using fire. Even though the dress is disembodied, it seems to move in a space of it’s own. A dress is worn not only to protect the wearer from the universe, but it often defines individuality. The many layers are symbolic of both the psychological and the physical layers today’s women carry with them.
