Lecture

When in last week's lecture challenging preconceptions: time (Friday 5th November we had to think about the concepts of time. Whilst in this lecture I was very interested and excited by this:
Geramine Koh- knit work ongoing project since 1992.

Its a life-long piece made by unravelling used garments and re knitting them back together into a continuously growing object. It records the passage of time and effort and there will never be a final outcome as it just keeps going and going. Its a real measurement of time.




I also loved Martin Margiela installation which was held at
    Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen, Rotterdam, 1997.
He impregnated the garments with all sorts of moulds and watched how the garments changed throughout time. This is something I may write about for my assignment.
