Fashion Storm
collaboration, performance, video art
Fashion Storm is a video piece directed by Tom or Judy Moore. A collaboration between Moore, photographer M. Dabaddie, and me, we used artifacts from the Whose Museum archive at KRETS to explore gender, product design, and the activation of objects.
Artist statement excerpt, KRETS website:
“Part fashion shoot, part inflight safety demonstration, part YouTube instructional video, the group will investigate how to wear, perform and reconfigure the collection. Their documentation will be used to make a fashion film using drawing, performance and video collage to piece it together. Moore’s work regularly deals with collections, whether it is a photo taxonomy of wasp galls or a series of shrines built to women who have protected queer men.”
