How Do I Look In This?

My exhibition, How Do I Look In This?, has just finished at The Park Gallery. This is a lovely wee contemporary gallery in a massive park in the middle of Falkirk..quite unexpected! I showed clothing based sculpture alongside Susan Cutts, who makes stunning paper clothing sculptures. We each made a work inspired by Prêt-a-Porter at Callendar House, an exhibition of clothes that belonged to Ailsa Porter who was an air hostess in the 50’s and 60’s. This show is on until October 19th and is really interesting.

‘Prêt-a-Porter explores one woman’s unique twentieth century costume collection donated to Falkirk Museum. Mrs. Porter traveled the world as an air stewardess in the 1950’s and 60’s and her clothes reflect her time living a jet-set lifestyle. With over 300 items donated from hot-pants to baby-dolls this collection charts changing styles in women’s fashion from spring, summer, autumn and winter seasons.’
