Full disclosure...I'm not even little bit girly. I don't like to shop...at all...so I signed up for a mail order clothing service. I rarely wear dresses, RARELY, but when this dress came with my shipment something about the lines intrigued me. I have always loved art related to the Op Art (Optical Art) movement and this piece just spoke to me. It has been hanging in my studio for a while screaming to be an artwork. What I like about the dress is the stark contrast of perfect black and white lines....but decided to draw them anything but because, well that is who we are as humans. "And the world will be as one" Inspired by John Lennon's "Imagine" lyrics. Color, size, shape, preferences don't have to keep us from living as one. "I hope someday you'll join us" This piece was created using many different media and application to reflect the different people in the world. People can be vibrant, subtle, colorful, messy, imperfect, etc. but they all have value and similar elements that weave them together to work as one.
