Also,
to stitch something implies at times to 'repair', rather than make,
and this is certainly true of this dress where so many fragile pieces
needed to be contained and held together in its fragility. The collaging
process is both a creative and a destructive act, as is nature, whilst
the stitching becomes the creative human activity which unites the
experience and brings the piece into being. This dress also has these
delicate shoes with them. To find out more about this work go to the
