Wearable Art or Art to Wear
I have chosen this title for my practice in context unit, a in it clearly links in with my practice
Wearable art, also known as Artwear or "art to wear"
Refers to individually designed pieces of usually hand-made clothing
The term wearable art implies that the work is intended to be accepted as a serious and unique artistic creation or statement, that may be sold or exhibited.
Not all garments created as wearable art are made from traditional fibers or fabrics,
Not all such artworks are meant for ordinary, practical use.
Performance and conceptual artists have sometimes produced examples which are more provocative than useful.
