LABELS PAUL - CLAUDIA

Tired of using models, wanted to try something different, I feel like we rely too much on facial and bodily expressions to obtain powerful photographies(?) 

But the truth is, lots of details are not as appreciated. For example, on the green jumper: I sewed the label on the turtle neck, so when you wear it you can decide wether to show it or not by rolling the neck inside or out. For the outside label I understand it as an accesory, something temporary, not permanent and that you can change if you get bored of it, exactly the point of the exchange market we did in class.

For the klein blue jacket just played with the position and the original label. I wanted to combine them. 
Finally, I decided to hang it, reminds me of the aesthics in warmer countries with clothes hanging on every alley all around the cities. And also about my childhood, when I'd see all these women hanging the clothes during the summer (all year round actually haha) heat.

  Mask 1. The first mask, the one we talked most about, the curtain-like thing, is still at school. I have not had the chance to make more elaborate photos with it yet. I n short, I wanted a waving surface in front of the face, in the shape of the line that goes from one ear, over the nose, to the other ear.      Mask 2. For this mask I asked people to write down what they were confident about in themselves. I used these ‘confidences’   in a short movie, creating (or un-creating) a mask. I came up with this because I liked the idea of the ego as a sort of mask and asked myself what would be left when we are stripped of our ego. Because our positive self-image - the things we are confident about - is closely related to our ego, I thought this would be a less abstract representation of it. As more        and more of the stickers are ripped off, more of the ego dissolves and more of the real person is revealed. If t...

carelabel 2 Benaiah

the big P: for this label, I carefully read the instructions and documented the garment as it is supposed to be washed, strictly other purple clothing, in the washing machine, during the wash, left it to dry & eventually wearing it(not such a good foto). I took all the pictures with the flash, after doing some testshots, this is how the colour came out best, and made the care label readable! my goal with the pictures was to visualise the written instructions by only putting purple laundry with each other.   PHOTO EDIT  I liked this picture, because of the inside of the machine, and the clothes laying there with the care label explaining what's going on WASHING WASHING WASHING WASHING finished! dry the purple clothing. . dry and clean in the clothing closet!
