Because this project is a pure collaboration between fiber artist, Gabrielle Duggan and movement artist, PJ Maske, the following artist statement is in two parts.

About making the garments, Gabrielle says:

This project, a group of eight objects, represents the symbiosis of contrasting attributes found within my work, as well as in garments globally.  Technically, the objects in the Spectrum progress-or regress, depending on interpretation.

Some of the contrasting values addressed in garments are:

form | function     hand | machine      raw | refined  repulsive | attractive

I explore and observe these contrasts through my use of materials and techniques.

About making the performance of the garments, PJ says:

The installation shows a woman moving through Gabrielle’s Spectrum of garments, and reacting simply/briefly to the experience of wearing each one in a traditional living room setting.  These images (of a woman – in the garments – in a living room) and the performer’s responsive actions together call to mind questions about the contemporary dressed woman, the nature of our clothing and our expectations for it.’
