The idea of a distorted body really gets me excited. This year I am getting obsessed about sculptural and exaggerated form, distorted and mutation so I thought it would be fitting to post about one of my mentors.
Louise Goldin. WOW! Every time I look at her work I am pretty much lost for words. She has this amazing ability to sculpt the body past its normal margins and in a way create a piece of art. My research this year for my graduate collection is all about the evolution of the body and its forming into a machine like creature, a creature that can be enhanced, pulled and distorted to all sorts of shapes.
Louise Goldin is an inspiration to my work, not for the fact that she is a crazy knitwear specialist but because of her distorted bodies. She takes sci-fi to a new level and makes the machine body wearable.
