1	SULFUR Strid, Josefin January 2011 (has links) Orange, turqoise, apricot, brown, dirt, soil, water, sky and sulfur were my first bricks while building this collection. Ifound them in the pictures I took in Yellowstone, in the summer of 2010. While being in Yellowstone I thought aboutthe artist Georgia O´Keffee, an artist I’ve long liked. The landscape of Yellowstone reminded me about her landscapepaintings so I researched her life and work. She was a genuine feminist without saying it, she just lived like she wasequal to other women and men. This led me to a book about forgotten goddesses where I found references todrapings that I’ve developed and interspersed with flat pattern cutting. One of my key objectives, in this project andother projects, has been to push the limits of menswear towards feminine elements. I believe that there’s a certainreason why a woman can wear a suit without anyone looking twice but it’s very striking if a man wears a dress. Inthis collection I’ve looked into various reasons for this and I aim to let men dress the same way as women do aswell as the other way around. / Program: Modedesignutbildningen soil clay skye water apricot blue orange feminine masculine fadings white distinct georgia o'keeffe Design Design
