| Artist's Comment: | |
| World Trade Center A/dress uses a recycled wedding gown as a canvas for digitally enhanced media images of the World Trade Center bombings juxtaposed with iconographic images of our country and freedom. Like our country on that day, the transformation of the wedding gown represents a loss of innocence. The dress is transformed from a garment of ultimate feminine fantasy and identification into one that depicts the present horrific reality. The dress portrays the conflict of the tragedy we experience, yet freedom we still maintain. And with it the hope that by utilizing all forms of communication we can listen, learn, and move forward. | |
