Clothes on the Street – Festival VEO 2008

Our clothes always respond to a series of social and cultural conventions. Through them we create our own identity, recognizable to others and to ourselves. An identity which associates us with a gender, a particular role, a social class, religion, country, culture… Clothes cover us up, protect us, hide us.

Without their natural inhabitants, we bring them to life, searching out the limits between the container and the contents, confusing the living space with the inhabitant, inverting the sense of form and content. We begin a journey towards these experiences, this intimacy, to demonstrate it out on the street, as if it were an immense atrium full of clothes hangers.
