Block party
contemporary craft inspired by the art of the tailor
by Lucy Orta
"The process of transforming the flat pattern block into three-dimensional form is an enduring source of inspiration. The rich cultural heritage and evocative language of pattern cutting has stimulated a broad range of contemporary applications. Internationally renowned for her unique visual art practice fusing fashion, art and architecture, curator Lucy Orta was invited by the Crafts Council to select works which engage with pattern cutting on a variety of levels. Looking beyond the garment, Block Party showcases work by international and UK artists and makers who have embraced the interdisciplinary nature of this skill, applying the aesthetics and techniques of pattern cutting to their practice in innovative and unexpected ways."--Page 5.
