News | Exhibition ~ Wonder Women
The 'Bird' dress (2013) is handmade of thousands of laser-cut nude dragon-skin feathers and inspired by the wilderness within people and our changing relationship with nature. There are three birds that are fighting together and trying to fly off. Its dragon-skin feathers create a vibrating optical illusion when looking at the birds in motion.
