Art on the Edge of Fashion Performance

Medina - Red Velvet Gown
Photo by Kim Adams

SHERRIE MEDINA - "Red Velvet Gown" began with Medina attired as a beautifully dressed woman looking at art. She retreated from the public spaces of the museum and added her costume - a black harness tethering wads of bed sheets. She returned with the third-level bridge over one of the main staircases as her destination. Here, Medina began throwing the wads of sheets over the balcony. After all the sheeting had been thrown, she began to pull them back up and collected them into her arms. Some she disconnected and left behind.
